[quote=Anonymous]My dad got it in his 70s (1975-ish), my mom got it in her 80s (1995-ish), one of my co workers got chicken pox in her 50s (2010 or so) from someone who brought it to work from a sick kid and THEN had shingles a few weeks after recovering from chicken pox. Was out of work for a month or more. Adults need both chicken pox and shingles immunizations -- I elected to get shingles immunization at 50 -- about 5 years early in the opinion of the med insurance. Better to pay $300 than be out of work for a week or four. Less painful, too.[/quote]
