For those who don't follow me on Twitter and Face Book. I wanted to share this new vaccine information about Shingles.
Shingles can be a very painful and debilitating part of ones life. My sister in law had it and she sure wish she hadn't got it. If you have every had chicken pox you are susceptible to getting shingles (Herpes Zoster). This new vaccine is a great idea for the prevention of shingle later in life. Normally I wouldn't advocate getting a man made vaccine, but I believe this is a very good idea.
The Committee voted that Shingrix is preferred over Zostavax for the prevention of zoster and related complications.
