I have already received shots for the seasonal flu and have been immunized against Herpes Zoster and Pneumonia (two kinds). I cannot get those diseases and give them to anyone.

If there were infants in our family I would be revaccinated for the childhood diseases, especially Pertussis, (whooping cough).
Just wondering why adults would consider getting the childhood diseases vaccination again. Aren't the children themselves required to be vaccinated against those diseases before they can attend school?
