Do you need a booster shot for shingles after age 60?
Shingles is a painful disease caused by the reactivation of the chicken pox virus (varicella) that many adults had as a child. It is presumably the same virus that has been "hiding" in the person's nervous system, and not a newly acquired strain. In many cases it will resolve itself, but in some cases the pain can last for an extended amount of time. It usually follows the pattern of a single nerve or dermatome. The CDC is now recommending the chicken pox (varicella) vaccine for people over 60 to prevent the recurrence of shingles. At this point, there are no individuals who received the chicken pox vaccine as a child that have reached an age where they would be at risk for shingles, so a "booster" shot for this group of individuals has yet to be determined.
