I’m not sure anyone is keeping track No one has answers re:what’s the protocol when it happens? If you get shingles the 1st💉do you wait a year&redo both💉? Get the 2nd in 6 months? Do you take antivirals within 72hrs of the shot,pain or rash? Why did they get shingles? Are they less protected?

I had chicken pox 3 times, as a child, as a kid and as a teenager. Apparently my body doesn’t make full immunity to this virus.

Huh. As we go thru life, we learn about our unique physiology.

You’ve been through it! I’m worried about the virus bc it gave me Ramsey Hunt(the shingles in your trigeminal nerve)& it paralyzed one side of my face for weeks For some,it can be permanent It’s also cumulatively damaging if it keeps happening Viruses are no joke! Stay safe & best of health❤️‍🩹

Check the CDC website. And your pharmacist.

Pharmacist called Shingrix as well Hopefully the more calls Shingrix gets, the sooner Shingrix will come up with a protocol but they just kick it back to your GP as of now We see the GP soon. Will update if they have a plan & the logic behind delaying the 2nd💉or going ahead before 6 months

My GP says Covid is mild no need to mask any longer even though I have Long Covid symptoms that are debilitating & he can do nothing to alleviate them so I’m not holding out hope he will know what to do? We have an appointment in a week & will update if I get answers re Shingles from the vaccine
