I’m 46 but I had my shingrix shot because I’m worried about what RFK jr is going to do with vaccines. Shingles is a preventable illness like measles. We are so lucky to have these vaccines! I for one will not forgo them because the guy who runs government health services has a 🐛 in his 🧠

Got my single-dose MMR last month. All others up-to-date

I had a lot of childhood illnesses and later got the vaccines (precautionary), but I plan to ask my doctor to give them again next month for my annual exam. Again.... precautionary.
First time precautionary because vaccines were new science.
Second time precautionary because Jr. is a moron.
It’s hard to describe but believe me, the nervous system is unforgiving so protect it at all cost!!
It's the least I can do to prevent disease and Roadkill Rob wants to take it all away because he and his antivax cronies will profit.
Love it and some of your other replies.
Followed.
No no it’s not funny. He’s grifting. To better grift you need to create a problem. Measles wasn’t actually a significant US problem for a while.
Vaccines are safe. Their inactive ingredients are in tons of things. Pretty boring stuff really.
But he’s not in on that market.
In order to grift you create the problem: ensure ppl are unprotected, when disease strikes, grift off of them.
Ppl with medical bills and dead kids need to start suing these ppl
I'd like to know where he got this ridiculous antivax hard-on.
I also remembered the misery of chicken pox as a child (there's a connection) and had the 2 shots ASAP.
Parents, grandparents, for God's sake, make sure your children are properly vaccinated while you can!
Imagine her with shingles ON HER FACE a few years later.
Beautiful lady! Must have lots of love in her heart. That's very good on the skin.
She had a wonderful, adventurous life from an Alberta 🇨🇦 farm to living all over the world.
Religiously.
"...the shingles vaccine appeared to lower new dementia diagnoses by 20% — more than any other known intervention."

Manosphere world.
That doesn't mean they shouldn't b stopped.

With so few kids getting their vaccines now, it's doubly important for adults to stay boosted. Whooping cough is on the rise again.
Get DTaP every 10 years to protect from diphtheria, tetanus & whooping cough.
I’ve also been stashing medicine so I have enough to make it through Trump’s entire term. Don’t trust anyone right now. Take care of yourself.
Shingles doesn't care.
Worst pain I ever had, and I've had many broken bones and septic shock.
Those that were not infected need to stay up on their MMR vaccine immunity. Hope this helps, anyway ask you doctor and get done now.
I know a guy that got it at 35 and had to pay
But I don't think there is a medical reason why an adult couldn't get it. Younger people can get shingles too, just less common

I was putting it off (procrastination, not hesitation), but once our primary care explained the risks of getting shingles, we made our appointment immediately!
No more than the flu shot so far but have been told the second day may be worse.
I think about the person who nominated him and the Republican Senators who confirmed him.
What were they thinking would happen?
Vaccines are training for your body's defenses. Not getting them is stepping into the ring totally unprepared, it’s going to battle without weapons; it's not studying for a test. Being anti-vax is for dumb fucking idiots.
Evidently, contracting shingles at an earlier age is increasing.
The shingles vax shot is expensive & it is discouraged for anyone below 45.
We have eugenicist anti-vax fuqwit in charge of health...
I have friends with varying degrees of horrific experiences with an easily vaccinated situation.
As Howard Stern’s dad used to say to his son, “Don’t be stupid you moron…” 😎💉
Brain worm guy is looking to mess that up.
Kennedy disbanded the team who determine what flu strains should be included in the vaccine b/f they could make their recommendation
& I read that the Covid vaccine may be treated like a net-new vaccine & have to go through the rigorous testing which was done b/f the rollout
At the very least, congratulations on the outcome of Canada's recent election. I'm hoping we can get our own shit sorted soon.

I received the mesales booster and a tetanus shot.
I also received the latest COVID shot.
My arm was sore for TWO WEEKS
I feel safe now

I can see a day when foreign countries require proof of vax before travel for Americans.
We are living an Onion article.

If measles are on the comeback and children are being threatened because of stupidity in their parenting.
What will be the effect of shingles on middle aged, and elderly folk?
Maybe the shingles virus will attack a few or many of the non-vaccine community.
If born before 1957 or not sure if received the mmr vaccine after available in 1963, speak to your doctor if they recommend a dose.
Shingrix for adults over 50, 2 doses given 2-6 months apart with 90% efficacy, consult your doctor for questions.
Yet he's Secretary of Health and Human Services.
Winning!!
I’ve gotten every vaccine that is covered under my insurance!
I was wrong. This is a fucking nightmare and some are not going to survive this.
They are literally going to kill some people with these nut job policies.

I was a little kid when the polio vaccine came along. My parents had everyone vaccinated asap. There were no vaccinations for childhood diseases. I had all but mumps and got the shot for that.
I'm worried we won't have a flu or covid vax next year.
Do they have a CLUE what's in Ozempic, any more than in any of the vaccines? So infuriating.
The problem arises when big pharm uses vaccines as an income source and bypasses the research to prove its efficacy.
New borns certainly do not need a vaccine immediately after they are born. More oversight is needed.

RFK doesn’t have any medical training or expertise. His knowledge of autism is based on rumors and anecdotal stories which is not representative of the stringent

He has absolutely no business speaking on any topic related to the medical field. Period.

I have now had a shingles vaccine..... Just to be sure.
Because most of us had Chickenpox well before there was a vaccine, as I told one particularly stupid physician.
I had it in 1986. No vax available till 1995. Dumbass. (The Dr, not you.)
Like bro, my immune system is all kinds of horked up. I do NOT need freaking Shingles on top of everything else going on.
Can’t believe they gave you a hard time about the 2nd shot tho! Like, we’re already halfway done with this, let’s just finish the job?!?
At any rate, I've been very pleased with the Costco pharmacy. Shringix arguments notwithstanding.
But I'm taking your post as my sign, so I drove myself to my pharmacy. Getting it right now!! Thank you for the nudge 😉
My doctor is after me to get pneumonia vaccine I’ll have to schedule it soon 🙋♀️
But as John Lennon famously said:
“Whatever gets you thru the night (or vaccination experience), it’s all right!” 👍🏻
You don’t suffer too much.
Never had it myself but I've known people who did and I'd take a WEEK of icky from a vaccine to avoid that.
I went to get a vaccine in January 2020... Guess who got just the 1st one shot and not any recall (which one has to do)...
Guess I'll call my doctor.
I want this one body protected. 💪
{And yes, that can be extended by a month or two}
Those that get the 2nd shot near the 6 mo. frame fare better.
This time set up a reminder and get it done)
PS: the second one might kick your butt for a day or so, but do it anyway!
Does your doc resemble Gene Wilder at all?
Then again, we have a walking spray tan in D.C. who took over a decade to become a poor Jeff Ross.
Maybe spray tans prevent measles & covid. It wasn’t monoclonal antibodies what saved him from covid, it was horse tranqs & the spray tan!
It felt like goosebumps that were on fire.
I couldn't even put a cream on it go to sleep, because it would smear into my eyes while I slept.
Vaccine definitely recommended if it's available to you!
Anywhere between $200-$400
