There is also some good evidence that the shingles
vaccine reduces the risk of dementia, years later.

Yes. I got the Shingrix a month after I got stateside as I've talked to people who got shingles, and it's painful - open nerve type painful. I've had that type of pain and it took two shots of morphine to stop the pain. Had an internet friend who was anti-vax and swore up and down he'd never been sick in his life and never was vaxxed. Told him most people don't remember getting shots as babies, etc., and I only remember a sugar cube and the itchy scab on my arm that wanted scratching and they wouldn't let me scratch it. :)

Met him later and he got shingles which means he had chicken pox and was getting Shingrix. :)
