The first time I talked to a doctor about getting a shingles vaccination, he told me the chance of getting shingles without the vaccination is 3 out of 100. Then he said, "If you get the vaccination your chance of getting shingles will be 2 out of 100." At the time, it was not covered and would have been expensive so I didn't get it.
Years later it was covered by my HMO and the co-payment was only $35 dollars so I got it.
