If you’ve had chickenpox, you are at risk for shingles. Shingles is a viral infection that causes a painful rash that can be severe, can cause nerve pain, leading to vision loss. Shingles, also called herpes zoster, is caused by the same virus that causes chickenpox. Reactivation of the chickenpox virus causes shingles.
In the US, nearly 1 million people get shingles each year.Did you know that 1 in 3 adults in the US will get shingles in their lifetime? Half of people who live until age 85 will develop shingles. Shingles is typically associated with aging, but it can also occur in healthy children and younger adults.
Your best chance at preventing shingles is to get THE NEW VACCINE.The good news is that there is a newer and more effective vaccine available to help prevent shingles. Shingrix vaccine is recommended for all adults age 50 years and older whether or not they have had shingles or previously received Zostavax vaccine. Don't let a preventable disease like shingles keep you from doing the things you love.
