I got shingles back when I was about 40. Very nasty stuff - and you can get it more than once. Then a shingles vaccine came out. I went down to my local pharmacy to get the shot. The pharmacist said my insurance wouldn’t cover it (I was too young at the time). So I’d have to pay $120.

Don’t care, says I. Give me the shot.

Exactly this! Shingles is not to be messed with. Given the opportunity, get the vaccine.
