Typhoid vaccines (oral or injectable) offer protection but are not 100% effective. Getting infected after vaccination may be due to several reasons such as improper food/water hygiene, antibiotic resistance, or incorrect diagnosis. It is important to confirm if the repeated infections are truly typhoid (by blood culture or specific tests)
Next Steps
Get a proper diagnosis confirmed by a physician (preferably by blood culture during fever).
Rule out other causes of recurrent fever (e.g., other bacterial or viral infections).
Maintain strict hygiene, drink only boiled or RO water, and avoid street food.
Consult an infectious disease specialist if infections persist
Health Tips
Typhoid vaccination reduces the risk but doesn't offer complete protection.
Avoid self-medication and ensure any antibiotic course is completed properly.
Discuss with your doctor about possible antibiotic resistance and immunity issues.

It doesn't mean you don't get typhoid fever in future after vaccination but the severity and risk is very less compared to other people
