Who should get a shingles vaccine?

You should get the shingles vaccine if you are at high risk for getting it or if you are experiencing symptoms. It is recommended that individuals 60 and older get the shingles vaccine, as this is when the risk of contraction is high. Even if you have previously contracted shingles, you should get the vaccine to prevent or mitigate future cases. The shingles vaccine is not recommended by the CDC for anyone younger than 60 because it has not yet been thoroughly studied in those age groups.

My wife and I received wonderful care at this facility. We both had Covid tests twice. My second one was positive, but they treated me with kindness. I’ve seen two doctors here, one female and one male. Both were so professional and kind. We’ve found our place for urgent care.
