Once I got a flu shot because, hmmm, was it free at work? Or something. I just remember being shamed into it.
The only inoculation I would consider, well, other than tetnus, is the shingles one. Shingles scare me.

I'm in the process of getting the shingles vaccine (had shot 1 of 2). Conveniently provided at Costco, I was only 59 when I had that first shot and my insurance is covering in full.
Wait, is this shot in 2 stages?Originally Posted by rosarugosa
it scares me that we are seeing a resurgence of once eradicated diseases such as mumps and measles because parents are choosing not to immunize
Shingles scares me too. I've known too many people that suffered terribly. And Yes. Two shots two to six months apart. I had the first one a month ago. Definitely caused soreness at the injection site and a minor fever for 24 hours or so, but apparently that's normal because it causes quite an aggressive immune response.
It never occurred to me to go to Costco. Maybe I'll do that for the second one.
Yeah--the much-vaunted herd is primed to yell "anti-vaxxer" at those who don't fall in line. I would consider certain ones, depending on my personal risk. I've never had chicken pox--and I've been exposed to it--so no shingles shot for me.
Go on the internet and research the many books by doctors on the dangers of, and alternatives to, vaccines.

An excellent alternative to the tetanus vaccine is lockjaw.
A great video on homeopathic medicine! Emergency Room doctors treat a car accident victim with a variety of herbals and alternative medicinals!
That was funny!
