i had to get this last year and only got 2, apparently its effective after that for a certain length and the 3rd is a booster or similar

you can get the first 2 within a few weeks of each other

THIS IS NOT MEDICAL ADVICE THOUGH!

ask a doctor, med student whatever!

The third one isn't nessesary, it just makes it last longer. But again, I'm no expert either, only heard that when running a volunteer organisation.
