If you had chicken pox as a kid, the shot is great. But if you are anti-vax, please post daily on the experience if you get the shingles.

me personally, i don’t take medical advice from anyone who can’t define what a “woman” is and/or advocates for children to take puberty blockers.

do yourself a favor. if you only get 1 vaccine the rest of your life, get the shingles vaccine.
I agree with this. I got the two shot regimen last year. First dose had me feeling a little sickly, but it didn’t last long. Second, I had no issues at all. It’s a shame that we all think this way now.

I got the Chicken Pox as an adult when I was 24. I have never been thst sick and miserable in my whole life.
I got a small case of Shingles in my mid 50's and again total misery. I got the Shingles Vax in 2020 during Covid. I had the first shot and the after effectsi was like a very mild case of the flu. I went back three months later and I got the Johnson & Johnson Covid jab in one arm and the second dose of Shingles vax in the other arm. The second shite was way worse than the first, but no where as bad as having Chicken Pox at 24 and mild case of Shingles at 53.
I also went through a year and a half of Interferion injections in my stomach when I was
37. Interferon now that's a Bad MamaJama.

I have my doubts about the Shingrix vax since the Plandemic clot-shots.

20 years ago this board was all LSU finals help and partying.
Now it’s about if you need to get the shingles vax.

other than a sore arm, i didn't have any other noticeable side effects from either shot.
both pale in comparison to the pain of shingles. felt like 1/2 my body was covered in white phosphorus.

Got it last Thursday, and the whole weekend sucked. That being said, one of my friends got the shingles, and his pain makes this feel like a minor incident. I say get it, baw.

Old people , yes.
Real vaccines exist and are important and helpful.
Unfortunately and sadly the COVID fake vaccines changed the thought process on actual vaccines.

I’m about to get mine as well. I was told to clear your calendar for the 2nd shot, it’s supposed to be pretty rough.

If you are older than 55 you should probably get the vaccine, or don't and roll the dice, but shingles is very painful

Shingrix is given in 2 doses given about 6 months apart. The study found 2 doses were 76% effective against shingles, while 1 dose was 64% effective.
Enjoy your made up """vaccine""" death shot, shingles pharma cucks!

I'll pass but thanks though.

One of my friends had a bad case of it on his scalp and face. He almost lost his sight in one eye from it. Seeing that was enough for me and I got the vax. As posted, the second shot was a bit worse than the first, but probably nothing like getting the shingle cooties.

I've had shingles, it sucks. I know a guy that got Bell's Palsy from the vaccine.

I don't take the flu shot and don't believe in covid jabs, but I did take both shingles doses. For a healthy person flu/covid isn't a huge risk, but from what i've heard shingles borders on nightmarish territory. Never felt bad after either shot, but I'm not a pus either.

I have heard horror stories about shingles.
Actual stuff on body healed in a few week, left 2 small scars like a spider bite.
Nerve pain lasted at least 6 months and was intense and never quit, 24 / 7.
Get the shot, especially as you can get it more then once now in your lifetime.

I had chickenpox’s in college and it was absolutely miserable. If shingles is worse, I’d rather not find out.
