What’s the general consensus on the Shingles vaccine? I am especially cautious after the covid disaster.

Shingles vax is free if you are on Medicare.

Painful virus. Part of the Herpes family. My wife had it several years ago. She’s a tough Irish / Kraut kid, but that made her cry… a lot.

Unfortunately… Because of what they did to us with Covid, I don’t trust any vaccine at this point. And I did notice that right after people started refusing the Covid vaccine, commercials for shingles, shingles, shingles started popping up everywhere.

I’m not gonna take it. Its better to take things to strengthen your immune system so that this and other “opportunistic” things don’t take advantage of a weaker immune system.

#3: What's the general consensus on the Shingles vaccine?

I've had both the earlier vaccine and also the improved
more recent one. No problems. It seems to work for me.

Its the same virus that causes chickenpox. Crazy that chickenpox and shingles are a type of herpes virus.

Some people actually “had” Chicken Pox without having any symptoms. Did you get tested?

I am very allergic to the shingles vaccine. I cannot take it. Had a very severe negative reaction to the first of the two shots. Love the way my doctor said, “Don’t take the second shot.” Really? I figured that out for myself after the pharmacist at the drug store where I took the shot had to give me Benedryl, as my throat was closing up.
