If I might add a personal note on the horror of the child abuse inflicted by #PlagueLover #antivaxers: I was born in 1957, before an effective vaccine against measles, much less chickenpox, even existed. If those vaccines HAD existed, my parents would have made sure I got them; whatever their flaws, they were staunch believers in modern medicine, including vaccination. They told me that I came very close to dying of measles before I was old enough to remember it. Unfortunately, I DO remember getting #chickenpox at age 6. Even today, more than half a century later, I remember the ghastly, relentless, tormenting itching โ€” as well as the pain of the attack of #shingles, a recurrence of the same virus, that I got at age 44.

And these #antivax fools would voluntarily force their children to embrace these horrors??

#ChildAbuse

The safety and efficacy of #vaccines is constantly monitored. For example, this is a study that measles/mumps/rubella (#MMR) and #varicella zoster (#chickenpox/#shingles) vaccinations are safe in #MultipleSclerosis patients. #vaccine #vaccination

You would prefer not to be breathed on.

#Hanta virus is, I think, not very infectious, comparted to #Measles #Chickenpox #Influenza #COVID *

In a previous emergency I was dubious about #vapes , as they emit a cloud of cool droplets from the lungs which goes a long way.

How far can someone blow a smoke ring, except without smoke - a vortex ring?

Iโ€™ve never had #chickenpox but after reading about the possible benefits of the #shingles vaccine re: #dementia (which my fathers side of the family has/had BIG TIME) Iโ€™ve had the first of my two shots recently.

Worth having.

#CDC "pauses" testing for #rabies, other serious #InfectiousDisease #Disease tracking is also "temporarily" halted for #mpox, other common #viruses, eg #EpsteinBarr & #VaricellaZoster (the virus that causes #Chickenpox & #HerpesZoster). #Herpes #Health www.nbcnews.com/health/healt...

Appointment with my doctor confirmed for tomorrow.

#Vaccination time for #Covid & #Shingles.

(Iโ€™ve never had #Chickenpox but I read the Shingles vax is a possible #dementia fix. Maybe? Or it might slow dementia)
