But surely you can do a booster shot?
2 comments

I've had two shingles shots: Zostavax and Shingrix. There's no reason you couldn't take either shot again. You might have to pay but no big deal.

I know people who've had shingles and it is not only a major PITA but can be life-threatening, can blind you, etc., just bad stuff. Don't delay taking advised precautions, including injections.

So far as I know there's no standard booster protocol for Shingrix.
That just tells you it hasn’t been fully researched, not that it wouldn’t be useful.
You could just get one more dose, right?
