As I enter my 50s, I am experiencing many physical changes. My immune system suddenly weakens, and my health is deteriorating. During times like this, I see many people around me who have had shingles.
They say it hurts so much that it's almost unimaginable.
I often thought, "I shouldn't get shingles."
So I also want to prevent it in advance and am planning to get the shingles vaccine, but I found out there are two types of vaccines to choose from. The prices are not cheap, so I would like to hear your opinion on which one is better.
1) Live attenuated vaccine (Jostabax, SkyJoster)
: Single dose. Price 140,000 to 160,000 won
2) Recombinant vaccine (Singrix)
: 2 doses. Price: 400,000 to 500,000 won
Which vaccine is good in terms of effectiveness, side effects, and price?
