This may be a good place to mention that a huge study [0] conducted over 6 years with tens of thousands of US Veterans Administration patients found that having a recent Tdap vaccination predicted a 40% lower incidence of dementia. This was confirmed with an independent cohort. You hardly need any reason to go get your Tdap booster. Any faint possibility that it might stave off dementia ought to be enough by itself. Get your shingles vaccine, too, while you're there. And, get prescribed some valacyclovir: studies in Asia have shown that had a desirable effect, with no risk.
