A member asked:
What vaccines should i get for precaution (other than varicella and the typical baby vaccines you get as a child in a 1st world country) ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Vaccines in Adults: Hepatitis a and b; gardisil; the tetanus with the new adult pertussis; the annual flu vaccine. As you get older then adding the shingles vaccine is wise.
