I hate going to doctors but as many of you already know I have had to visit the GP a lot of times recently due to one reason or the other, I found the below picture very amusing , could not figure out what they were trying to tell us .. Have a look
do they mean that people between 71 and 77 are immune to shingles ..
It seems they are saying so. Can’t understand the logic behind that. 🙂

What is Shingles?
What you eat/drink is the best (preventive) medicine. Be careful with that, and you may not have to visit doctors frequently.

May be this viral infection (shingles) affects mainly those people who are 70 Plus years old.

“Were you aged 70, 78, or 79 on Sept 1, 2014?” That was the whole question… maybe if you escape shingles when you are 70, you don’t need to worry about until you’re 80? And since old people tend to forget things (yes yes, even young people do – I am a prime example), maybe they were asking people of both 78 and 79 to get vaccinated?
Just guesswork… best ask your GP, or better yet, ask that S… P…, MSD who provided the flag banner. 😛
