This vaccination package helps protect you against shingles, a painful viral infection that causes a blistering rash. Shingles is caused by the same virus that causes chickenpox, and it's most common in older adults and people with weakened immune systems. If you've had chickenpox before, the virus can reactivate years later as shingles. The package includes the shingles vaccine administered at Sunway Medical Centre Velocity. Getting vaccinated significantly reduces your risk of developing shingles and can also help prevent the long-lasting nerve pain that sometimes follows an outbreak. This is an ongoing package, so you can book your vaccination at a time that works for you. The vaccine is especially recommended if you're over 50 or have certain health conditions that put you at higher risk.
