New & Issues
Zostavax - vaccination for shingles has arrived ! Shingles is a painful blistering rash, usually occurring in one part of the body and often lasting for several weeks. It may lead to severe and long-lasting pain (post-herpetic neuralgia) and scarring. Less commonly bacterial skin infections, weakness, muscle paralysis, loss of hearing or vision can occur . Shingles is caused by the same virus that causes chickenpox. After you had chickenpox the virus that caused it stays in your body within nerve cells and sometimes after many years the virus can become active again and cause shingles.
Zostavax is given as a single dose and is used to vaccinate individuals of 50 years or older.
