It's 65 here unless you want to pay for it. I had shingles a few years ago and thought I was going to die. Maybe that was just wishful thinking.

I've been getting annual flu shot for the last few years and plan to do the 2-shot pneumonia course next month and next year. No recent tetanus and no shingles shot - yet. Will consider both if/when physician recommends. I'm doing B12 shots and monthly allergy injections, so that's enough poking for now

Data from the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services shows 3.2 percent of kindergartners and seventh-graders received immunization waivers in 2016. Thats down from 4.8 percent in 2014 but up from 3.1 percent in 2015.
Michigan was among 36 states that last year experienced a kindergarten waiver rates increase.
What were seeing is more vaccine hesitancy, more vaccine-resistant parents, said Bob Swanson, division of immunization director for the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services. And thats a concern to all of us. ...
