I had chicken pox but my brother got the shot. Now I have the milestone of shingles and he never will yay
I never got chicken pox or the shot because we couldn’t prove if my mom had it or was vaccinated as a kid. They thought maybe I was immune, and as a teenager did some testing. I’m not immune.
I’m soon to be 36 and absolutely terrified of it. Im too old to be vaccinated against it now so I just have to do everything I can to avoid exposure but it can literally kill me at this age.
I hate people who don’t vaccinate their kids. I didn’t have a choice because of missing medical records and risk to my mom. But to choose not to do so because of woo woo shit? Fuck you.
I got chicken pox in my 30s, before a vaccine was available.
It's the only time in my life I considered becoming a pavement bollard by taking a dive from my 3rd floor apartment.
The pain was so bad that I ran a shower without the cold tap on until I passed out...for 2 days. Yes, I got hyperthermia, and was severely dehydrated but it was the only way the pain would stop.
Anti vaxxers are to be treated with contempt and mocked ceaselessly.
Note: I think you can get the vaccine at any age. Check with a reputable doctor or your local health authority.
I’m gonna check again but I was told years ago that I was out of luck and to be extremely careful
There's a lot of vaccines that get approved for one age group first, then they go through the process for a wider age range
Chicken pox vax was not a thing when I was little. I had to go stay with my grandparents when I got chicken pox cause my mom never had it
Same. Literally everyone in my kindergarten class got it except me. I don't think there even was a vaccine back then. At least the kids I spend time around these days have had their shots.
You can get vaccinated against chicken pox as an adult.
As an immunocompromised cancer survivor, I can tell you that unless you’re also immunocompromised, it’s not too late to get vaccinated against chicken pox. After my stem cell transplants, I had to have all my childhood vaccines again; but I can’t get varicella (chicken pox) or MMR as they’re live vaccines and the risk of catching the disease from the vaccine is too great.
Get as many vaccinations as you can as often as you can.
That’s why they wouldn’t give it to me but I’m not immune compromised
I got the shot and still got chicken pox later in life. I was the unlucky tiny percentage.
Get your shots people.
even without nurgles gift of shingles, chicken box was on of the worst experiences of my life. Mom had to cover all the mirrors, it was soo hot because it was summer, I was constantly told not to scratch or pop them, the only relief was the oatbath that now I associate the smell with happiness/hope and crying cause mom had to take me out. This is crap anti vaccination wants for all children. Wtf character did it give me? It only filled me with more anger and drive to not want anyone suffer like this.
Not necessarily. I got the chickenpox vaccine as a kid and then in early high school, got shingles anyway. Yaaay.
Terrible luck right here.
Definitely lol, not normal by any means
