TEXASGIRLMAMMA :
Didn't clarify, but there are other cases. The US has had a huge surge, CDC not happy kids aren't getting vaccinated due to phony autism rumors.😢

#msg5971639jv339 : My mom got shingles this year...no fun at all.
 
Joe : My wife has already had shingles a couple of times and she is not even 50. I inquired about the shot but they said you have to be 50 years old or more to get it.

dac2010 : That is a shame! I would think your wife should be able to get the shingles vaccine to help keep her from getting it again. Is insurance not paying or is it the dr. saying she can not get it.

dac2010 : This is from the CDC. You might want to read it to determine if maybe you need a new dr. for your wife. If she has a weakened immune system she qualifies for it.

(separated by 2 to 6 months)
 
Adults 19 years and older with weakened immune systems due to disease or therapy
