Who should get a shingles vaccine?

You should get the shingles vaccine if you are at high risk for getting it or if you are experiencing symptoms. It is recommended that individuals 60 and older get the shingles vaccine, as this is when the risk of contraction is high. Even if you have previously contracted shingles, you should get the vaccine to prevent or mitigate future cases. The shingles vaccine is not recommended by the CDC for anyone younger than 60 because it has not yet been thoroughly studied in those age groups.

Without insurance, a shingles vaccine and the consultation generally preceding it can cost anywhere from $200 to $250.

It goes on to claim that in people with weakened immune systems, the shingles vaccine is 68 percent to 91 percent effective in preventing shingles. According to the CDC, the Shingrix vaccine is 91 percent effective in preventing long-term nerve damage from shingles in people 50 years and older, and 89 percent effective in adults 70 years and older.

How often do you need to get the shingles vaccine?

Had an accident and lip was split open, it was really bad. It was late they were about to close soon but they took me in put stitches in and then the same nurse called me 2-3 days later to make sure I was doing ok because she was thinking about me and wanted to make sure I was doing ok. That meant so much to me and now a year or so later you can barely see the scar. I don't think anyone could have done better. She said she did the stitches as she would've done it on her child. I really can't explain how great the care is there in words but there good people.

Couldn't get an appointment at our usual so gave this place a try to check my son for strep and flu. Nikki was great and the place accepted our insurance. Walked right in with no appointment and waited 20 minutes until seen.
