Well, this is Baltimore City. They just plain don't have the resources to instate a plan like in New York or Chicago where the vaccinated can forgo wearing masks. At the same time, all of the major hospitals in the area are here, so if you have patients with severe illness, they end up in Baltimore. So they absolutely have to keep it under control in the city so that the hospitals don't end up in the same situation that the Florida hospitals are in. If people really don't feel like wearing their masks, well, there's outdoor dining, and the surrounding counties don't have mask mandates, although private businesses are starting to ask everyone to wear masks.What about the people that did get vaccinated and were told "either get the vaccine or wear a mask?"
I have a friend who had it as a baby. She was sooooo sick with it, like to the point that they were really worried about whether she was going to make it. She's going to have to get the shingles vaccine when she's older.It was developed in the late 1970s, but was not widely available until 1984. And was not routinely given until the late 1980s.
Late enough that it wasn't available for my daughter (who got it at age 4 after a casual exposure - a few weeks after spending the day with a friend who had it without catching it) but it was available for her little brother.
I had it when I was around 7. My best friend caught it when she was 17, and had a much tougher time with it. There was a good reason for parents to want their children to get when they were between 2-12.
Ah, that makes sense. My friend and I were born in 1995, and she had chicken pox as a baby. Her older siblings brought it home to her. I wondered why they weren't vaccinated; her mom is super on top of vaccines.In the US it became available in 1995. I only know that because I was legally an adult who struggled for 4-5 years to get someone to vaccinate me.
"Chickenpox vaccine became available in the United States in 1995. Each year, more than 3.5 million cases of chickenpox, 9,000 hospitalizations, and 100 deaths are prevented by chickenpox vaccination in the United States."

I was vaccinated as an adult with this one. Prior to that I had no options. Every year that passed I worried more about catching it. There is no way I'd willingly let my kid catch it now. He was vaxxed in part to protect me.
Windows 11?That’s just the micro chips. Tomorrow you may have an overwhelming desire to buy a PC or at least upgrade your existing one to Windows 11
I am older and remember some kid or other walking around scratching (calamine and confinement for the worst part) or some with mumps. I had both and thought it was a normal part of growing up. I'm now anticipating shingles at some point in my future. I think this is a similar spread but we hear about every case and the total numbers are staggering. All I knew back then is what I saw at school and in my neighborhood.
Oh, I don't think hundreds of thousands of people a year died from the chicken pox either
Definitely seconding this. Shingles for some people is extremely nasty. For my grandfather (who also had MS) shingles was the begining of the end. My great aunt also had shingles and she has not been right since. She was totally healthy before the shingles and she's like a different person afterward. She's only 69 but she keeps falling in her home. It's bad. Get the vaccine.There is a vaccine ( improved) for shingles. You may want to consider getting it, if you are in the recommended age group.
I had to google it too.. I am 33 and didn’t get the vaccine, but got it at 5 and gave it to my 18 month old sister.Dunno. After i got it.
My wife had shingles a few years ago and it was bad but she fully recovered. She had never had chicken pox but had been vaccinated.Definitely seconding this.

The tails and gills seem to last a bit longerDon't worry, any extra arms or legs that grow fall off
Seeing she had such a bad case have her check with her doctor to see if she should get the shingles vaccine before 50 as in way early.I have a friend who had it as a baby.

Had the pollo pox when I was 14. I was covered so much with it I had it on parts of my body I didn't think it would be on.Seeing she had such a bad case have her check with her doctor to see if she should get the shingles vaccine before 50 as in way early.
Yep and of course while it was suggested to parents, people debated the merits of vaccination because "nobody died of chicken pox" so maybe some your age also had parents hesitate. Even some of my friends with teens and young adults like you, questioned the need much like covid now. Some asked me what I planned to do with my son. It was never a question in my houseAh, that makes sense. My friend and I were born in 1995, and she had chicken pox as a baby. Her older siblings brought it home to her.
