Is it bad that I didn't know for a long time that you had to keep getting vaccinated for shit as an adult?

When I almost cut off my finger, they were like, "Is your tetanus vaccine up to date?" And I legit was like, "Well, I got it as a kid, so I think so." And the doctor looked at me askance.

ASKANCE!

Found out that I don't have the Varicella required vaccine. I'M AN UNVACCINATED KID, DON'T SNEEZE ON ME YA GERMRY MEAT SUITS!

Apparently that one is for the chicken pox, which I had already, so now I need to do blood work to prove I'm immune to it. :|

I don't have that one either because I got "THE POXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX!" when I was a baby

I've gotten the tetnus shot twice so far within 10 years because both times I forgot I already taken it. I asked them if it was bad to have multiple shots but they said no. lol I also love your use of askance.

The Pox

The Pox

It can really knock off your socks

It may only cost a pound, but if you don't get the shot, you might be in the ground. 😮

You'll have to get the 2 shingrix shots someday.

I feel like we had to get it to start school but I woke up with chicken pox in the 2nd grade. I remember because it was the day my brother was born so I was quarantined at my grandma's house XD

I was reading that they give it a year after birth? Not sure it's that's the one or something else I was reading. But I also saw that a small amount was given in the 90s than now. I think that has to do with them implementing the vaccine later than our generations. I think most of just got chicken pox to actually deal with it. XD

Shots don't bother me too much, especially if I get my sticker.

I just meant you've had chicken pox, so you'll need the shingrix shots to avoid "shingles".  My former boss & my Mom both have shingles - nasty, painful stuff.  Mom nearly got it in her eye.

Yeah I've heard about it. Sucks that people can still be affected it later on life. I didn't know they had a shingles vaccine tho, so at least people can work on not getting it in the future.
