Since mine was decades old I got the multiple needle pokes again. Others just got a shot type booster.

Yearly evaluations are a great thing. I'm sure this Doc or Docs added this to their list of that year's accomplishments.
I went back to India after 29 years. My doc had me update and boost almost all of my vaccinations, except Yellow Fever. I also got a few vaccinations that did not exist in 1988.
