The FDA recently approved a new vaccine that is supposedly more effective than the current option to help combat shingles. Shingles is a painful virus that is relatively common throughout the United States. An estimated 1/3 of people who have had chickenpox get shingles. This results in almost 1 million Americans every year getting shingles that can result in extremely painful sores It is caused by Varicella-Zoster Virus within the Herpesviridae family and is often a resurfacing many years later of the chickenpox virus.
The first vaccine was released in 2006 and received relative success with about 50% efficacy. The new vaccine, produced by Glaxo, is found to be about 90% effective. Vaccines are currently recommended for adults 60 years and older. However, they can be administered at 50 years or older depending on the situation. Most insurances are expected to cover this new series of two vaccines, which costs about $280. This is in comparison to the current $223 vaccines being administered by Merck. The recent approval on Friday from the FDA will likely bring the vaccine into market soon. However, more research will be done to compare the new vaccine with the current vaccine produced by Merck to compare side effects, long-term efficacy, and prevention of the virus. Stay tuned for results!
