I think my doctor will approve this because I’m not that far from these areas where the polio virus has been detected. The updated recommendations since June 2023 is adults should get a booster if they are in an area where they can be exposed or they travel to an area of exposure. A booster is recommended if it’s over 10 years since you’re full series. A full series is recommended for adult adults if they never had the full series.
