Just saw a post from a very vaccinated liberal Jewish Facebook friend (even her kids are vaxed) exhorting people to "make sure to get your shingles vaccine," because she got it.
Shingles is iirc just latent chicken pox that your body normally knows how to handle when the immune system is on point.
People get shingles normally all the time and have for many years before the vaccine. I had them about 5 years ago when I was rather stressed about a job. Make sense that plenty of other people might be in such a position, right?
Actually a friend of mine got them in FL where she was living for two months. Least stressed she’s ever been. Urgent care Dr. told her there’s been a huge unexplained rise in shingles. She isn’t vaxed
