Abstract
⺠One dose of zoster vaccine (ZV) elicits substantial protection against HZ. ⺠This study examined impact of a second dose of ZV. ⺠ZV was generally well-tolerated and immunogenic in adults â¥60 years old. ⺠2nd dose of ZV was generally safe, but did not boost VZV-specific immunity beyond postdose 1 levels.
