I have a couple of friends that had shingles and they said it was terribly painful.

Not just older people are affected. Horrible to have I would think.

If its so awful why isn’t the vaccine free for everyone?

Sounds like a horrible, painful disease.

Wondering if the price of the vaccine could be reduced for this horrid thing.

I read about this today. A lady I work with got it and ended up with bells palsy in one side of her face. It’s not something to take lightly!

I’ve never had it, but my husband has. And recently a friend of ours had it too

We’ve had some of our teachers struck down with this in the past. Apparently it is very painful.

I didn’t know it mostly affected older people.

I never suffered from it and I didn’t even know there was a vaccine.

Luckily I haven’t but I have heard that it’s so painful

My dad had it a few years ago, my partner had it many years ago and my daughter in law had it earlier this year. Hers spread to her eye and she nearly lost her sight

I know of people who have had it and it is extremely painful.

I haven’t but I’ve seen people who have. Not pleasant

Oh my this is not something you want to get. I haven’t personally had it but my friend had it in her eye. Not good at all.

I have not suffered from the shingles but have recently seen the impact of shingles on a family member and a colleague. Looks really bad and irritating.
