I am reading many medical papers stating that older adults who have had a Dtap series as children, and boosters as adults... don't need to continue boosters in advanced age. I am going to ask my doctor to request Dtap titres to confirm my immunity....before I have anymore Dtap boosters. I am 73.
Some immunological experts are saying tetanus and diphtheria at age 30 and 60 after childhood vaccination. Unfortunately, there its no separate pertussis shot available at this time ...just Dtap combo.

A nice overview. For pneumococcal vaccine, my understanding is that CDC now recommends only one shot, just the PPSV23 as of 2020. But my pharmacy just gave me PCV13 without telling me,. So I go back in a year for PPSV23 and the pharmacy chain gets to bill Medicare twice. Clever move...
"And these days who doesn't have a chronic condition" ? There's a 'red flag' 1:10 right here. Needs clarification.
