I got the pox when I was about 10, didn't move from bed for about 3 weeks, then got the shingles when I was about 35, big scab formed on my throat and burnt like all hell.
It was a great idea because we didn't have GooGle or other people's opinions.Google how much of a good idea that was in hindsight.....

We all had it and most of us can't remember... except for my youngest bro, he picked the biggest forehead pox and left himself a round hole scar.
TLDR. Everyone should get vaccinated.Sooooo- Lets break down the information I have managed to glean since this thread started. All from Govt health pages from various states.
Sooooo pretty much - Shrug good luck everyone
- If you get vaccinated - You can still catch it but it shouldn't be as bad unless it is
- If you had it as a kid - - The virus stays dormant in your system forever and can reactivate - but shouldn't be as bad unless it is
- A lot of people get misdiagnosed with Chicken Pox as a child so have not actually had it before
- Adults don't technically get Chicken Pox they get Shingles but Shingles is just bad Chicken Pox
TLDR. Everyone should make an informed decision.TLDR. Everyone should get vaccinated.
Sorry, adults sure can and do become infected by varicella-zoster. I spent time in hospital with it. My treating doctor in the ED has had it three times himself. I was vaccinated as a child.Sooooo- Lets break down the information I have managed to glean since this thread started. All from Govt health pages from various states.

Chickenpox (varicella)
Chickenpox can be a serious disease in adults and babies. It is very contagious. Vaccination is the best protection against chickenpox.www.health.gov.au
Adults can definitely become infected with varicella.
CDC: “Varicella (chickenpox) is an acute infectious disease. It is caused by varicella-zoster virus (VZV), which is a DNA virus that is a member of the herpesvirus group. After the primary infection, VZV stays in the body (in the sensory nerve ganglia) as a latent infection. Primary infection with VZV causes varicella. Reactivation of latent infection causes herpes zoster (shingles).”
TGA approval for vaccines are limited to 50 yo plus. Under 50 are exposed.
Aren’t the bell ends the ones who won’t vaccinate? Don’t make me meme….Reactions to a disease are typical bell curve stuff which just goes to show there are still people who are bellends.
What if youCDC: “Varicella (chickenpox) is an acute infectious disease. It is caused by varicella-zoster virus (VZV), which is a DNA virus that is a member of the herpesvirus group.
