Getting a shingles vaccine at 50 isn’t required, it’s recommended because the severity of the infection can lead to hospitalization and death as you age and your immune system starts to fail.
Also shingles isn’t contagious to others unless they have never had chicken pox. Most older people have had chicken pox and hopefully younger people have been vaccinated.

Probably because the answers have been shitty and nobody has really addressed the fact that prior infection does in fact provide protection, or the fact that vaxxed simply get a pass even though they carry, get sick, and she'd the virus.Quote:

so why isn’t it required?? This is a potentially deadly disease and we have a vaccine for that would limit hospitalization and death! Doesn’t anyone think about anyone else!?!?Quote:

the only thing that appears to be working is vaccine passports which limit your abilty to participate in life without showing a code on your phone to porve you are vacccinated which allows you to go for a beer or a pizza
and they say the exact same things in the ICU about big pharma or whatever cuz they read the exact same things on their device
I would guess it’s because it’s not really contagious because almost everyone alive has had chicken pox or been vaccinated for chicken pox so it doesn’t really affect other people. Just a guess.Quote:

And yet you blame literally everyone else for you also potentially getting people sick.
the hive mind here is so smart, I forgot some were medical doctors and they even helped make the vaccine! Therefore, any and all knowledge I have about anything is invalid!!
According to the CDC the unvaccinated transmit at a 5 times higher rate as the vaccinated and are 29 times more likely to be hospitalized with Covid.
Since this has been brought to your attention many many times it's not just your knowledge but also your innumeracy that is invalid.
As an aside, are you a QAnon supporter?
The proof of lower transmission in highly vaccinated communities has been presented here multiple times. Just because there are breakthrough cases doesn’t mean greater transmission.

I’ll just wait.
edit: I’ll wait for anyone here to show me that by having antibodies, I still need to get the shot because my chances of dying are as drastic as if I was vaccinated and in my same age range. Same with me infecting someone else (more than a vaccinated person would). You guys can’t prove this and so all you can do is make a blanket law that keeps everyone except the hive mind from participating in society.
its cool though… hitler wanted everyone to be Aryan ����♂️
We dropped the ball on contact tracing and follow up for previously infected. The level of protection likely varies greatly. Do you have a good long book?

Protection varies greatly from the vaccinated too. People have gotten the shot and then found out they didn’t have antibodies after 6 months - that’s alarming.Quote:

soooo you want to start that good, long book of yours now?
No need to wait. Just go back and reread the previous answers.Quote:

It varies greatly in vaxxed to...wtf???Quote:

Keep on deflecting/ignoring/goal post moving.

This isn't about teamwork lol ...
actually, combating a pandemic IS about teamwork.
I have not seen a single post in the last week ( Except yours ! !! ) that says YOU [ ...need to get (vaccinated) ?? ]
but it is irresponsible to deny the value of vaccination - which appears to be the cause you have championed.
you claim you have had covid - congratulations.
. . . I wish we could give you an award that included the enlightenment of the lack of responsibility of your position.
part of me thinks you are just here for entertainment -
you love the argument ; you LOVE the attention.
I wish we could give you an award, mtu -
it IS about teamwork; it is not about YOUR antibodies - - but, hey, keep manufacturing quotations...
goodBye, mtu -
tj
It’s almost as if you can’t discern the difference between prior infection and anti-vax! And I thought you guys were supposed to be smart….Quote:

same with Covid for a prior infected, under 40 person. But you’ll never admit that because, “reeeeeeeeee trust the science - everyone needs a vaccine now and 6 months from now and another 6 months from then……”
Worse, they are promoting getting infected to acquire immunity in lieu of vaccination.Quote:

Asymptotically contracting COVID. People really take that for granite. And treat it like an escape goat.
Wrong. All conjecture and widely varied results. You see the ones you want, but the others exist. As you've all mentioned it's changing everyday as we learn more.Quote:

id love to see the “lack of responsibility” because before vaccines that was all you could do - “social distance” if that worked and wear a mask. And guess what! Millions still got infected with Covid!!! And now we’re just going to ostracize them from society because they have antibodies and don’t want an unnecessary vaccine (if they’re under 40)
you need to get out and live life a little man… if you’re that worried about a virus, I’d hate to see how you ski. You ever leave the ground when you ski??
WTF is a good point. It varies 1% as much among vaccinated as convalescent. 1% is equivalent in a very WTF kinda world.Quote:
