One year is more like the protection is so good that you probably won't even get sick.

I think it also depends a lot on the vaccine though. Something like meningitis or the MMR seem to be much much longer lasting, when you've had your shots you don't need them again.

Probably someone who knows more about vaccines can explain it better.

Right, yes. Sorry, I was implicitly assuming this was about Covid Vaccines again, which seem to be the focus of "Vaccine Skeptics"
