    It’s absolutely better to get chicken pox than shingles, but if you get the vaccine, you get neither. But hey, I get it, big pharma is a monster, but many that rally against vaccines also use Ozempic, and plastic surgery etc. Is RFK really onto a thing with vaccines when he’s taking steroids?

      It’s not one or the other though. If you don’t get chicken pox you can’t get shingles

      It’s also an anti-vaxx lie that vaccines somehow abuse the immune system in any way. The immune system is immensely complex to understand, let alone control. The most effective way for vaccines to work is to allow the immune system to do its thing. The immune system works to its full effect with vaccines, you simply do not get advanced symptoms or complications with vaccines compared to the real disease.
