How to Benefit from Public Health Information

Ask Your Doctor.

You are reading our public health information site. Your primary care providers (PCPs) are the medical professionals who have the responsibility and expertise to give you personalized medical recommendations, referrals and treatments that are age, gender and health status appropriate for you and your family. Your PCP can explain what information is relevant to help you decide whether to be vaccinated against shingles and other adult preventive and therapeutic vaccines. In particular, ask your PCP for advice on the breakthrough Shingrix vaccine to prevent shingles, including its safety, effectiveness, two-dose regimen, side effects, and risks of remaining unvaccinated. Ask your children’s pediatrician to help you decide whether they should be vaccinated against chickenpox and other children’s vaccines, both preventive and therapeutic.

MISSION 

Our research-driven mission is to help accelerate the search to prevent, treat, cure, and eradicate shingles, shingles pain (PHN), and chickenpox, as well as other diseases and medical conditions susceptible to preventive or therapeutic vaccination in adults and children.

Preventive and Therapeutic Vaccination Goals

  • Every adult should have a primary care doctor committed to 100% vaccination that is age, gender and health status appropriate. 
  • Every child should have a pediatrician committed to 100% vaccination that is age, gender and health status appropriate.
