shingles vaccine
Herpes zoster immunization
A shingles vaccine is an immunization that protects against herpes zoster, the viral infection that causes shingles—a painful rash that can develop in people who previously had chickenpox.
The vaccine is recommended for adults over fifty: My doctor suggested I get the shingles vaccine now that I've turned sixty.
