My face is still horribly scarred from chickenpox that I caught nearly 40 years ago. I can't imagine thinking that's okay to inflict on younger generations, let alone the health risks involved. The shingles vaccine made me miss a couple days of work, but I'd rather feel sick for a few days than deal with the pain of shingles. This dude is insane

So sorry you had to go through that. Side effects of the vaccine are pretty much always preferred Vs the actual illness.

My friends father was the kind who declined vaccines but begged the doctor for medications when he got shingles. He eventually got the vaccine but described the pain as someone holding a hot iron against your face...for months.
