Shingles Vaccine

The FDA has just approved the use of a vaccine against shingles. It is recommended for those over 60 years old. Unfortunately, it only reduces the chances of getting shingles by 50 percent. However, that’s better than zero. Unfortunately, it’s, as they say, a day late and a dollar short for the Vorlon Wife. She is very slowly recovering from her shingles. She still has some pain from time to time, but it’s not as bad as it once was.

We all know that Karol couldn't take the vaccine. She's only 29 years old.
