What is Zoster (Shingles)?

• The herpes zoster virus, also known as the shingles virus, is the same virus that causes the chickenpox.
• If you have had the chickenpox, your immune system may have been able to keep the virus under control.
• However, as we age our immune system naturally weakens. As a result, the shingles virus may reactivate, increasing the risk of developing shingles.
• It can occur anywhere on your body, but it mostly appears as a single stripe of blisters that wraps around either the left or the right side of your torso.

Healthy adults 50 years and older should get two doses of Shingrix, separated by 2 to 6 months. You should get Shingrix even if in the past you

• had shingles
• received Zostavax
• are not sure if you had chickenpox

There is no maximum age for getting Shingrix.
