Can TIV and herpes zoster administered together?
Yes. Here are the general rules: (1) all vaccines used for routine vaccination in the United States can be given on the same day; (2) an inactivated vaccine can be administered either on the same day as or at any time before or after another inactivated or a live vaccine; and (3) any 2 LIVE vaccines that are not given on the same day must be spaced at least 4 weeks apart. Zostavax is a live, attenuated vaccine; injectable trivalent influenza vaccine (TIV) and pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine (PPSV) are inactivated vaccines. Therefore, these 3 vaccines can be given on the same day or at any time before or after each other. They cannot, however, be given in the same syringe.

The reason why any vaccine needs to be given more than once (excepting the flu vaccine, which changes every year) is that researchers have found the each vaccination will only increase antibody levels by a certain percentage. Repeated "booster" shots increase this antibody production throughout adolescence to attain the optimal level of antibodies considered effective against that disease.

Is there a vaccination for shingles?
This is a very good question. Looks simple, but very difficult to answer. There is a vaccine available for shingles. You should take it, if you can afford the same, when you are older than forty years. You are already have virus in your posterior root ganglion. You are already immune to this virus. The vaccine gives you higher immunity. Shingles attack you only when your immunity is lowered down, probably. So this vaccine is not very effective. Also that, you do not know, which individual is going to be benefited by the vaccine. When you start the acyclovir and corticosteroids, early in shingles, the severity of the postherpatic neuralgia becomes very less. Again that can be managed by drug like carbamazepine, rather effectively. You can not recommend this vaccine for masses in developing countries, where children are dieing for lack of oral dehydration solution, which is quite inexpensive.
In 1718, Lady Mary Wortley Montague reported that the Turks have a habit of deliberately inoculating themselves with fluid taken from mild cases of smallpox and she inoculated her own children.Before Edward Jenner tested the possibility of using the cowpox vaccine as an immunisation for smallpox in humans in 1796 for the first time, at least six people had done the same several years earlier. In 1796 Edward Jenner inoculated using cowpox (a mild relative of the deadly smallpox virus). Pasteur and others built on this

Why is it difficult to create an AIDS vaccine?
1.The virus mutate and change shapes quickly and also aim at destroying the white blood cells at a faster rate than other diseases, The big problem in all treatments is HIV's rapid rate of mutation. 2. Every virus that comes out of a cell is slightly different from the one that went in. 3.It doesn't take long for drug resistant viruses to appear in the blood. 4. Like the common cold, the HIV virus changes so fast that it's difficult to develop an effective vaccine. # AIDS is a retro virus that changes its DNA so it is hard to destroy
Because they are still finding a cure for it. They only have medicine to help you with it but not getting rid of it.
It is not a hard matter to make a vaccine for a certain virus. The problem with the HIV virus is that it keeps changing into a slightly different virus, and any vaccine would be obsolete before it could even be used.
