Shingles Shingles – a painful skin disease that causes a rash and blisters – is very common. Fifty percent of all Americans will have had shingles by the time they are 80. But who is most at risk?
What are the risk factors for shingles? The leading risk factor for shingles is a history of having had chickenpox. One out of every five people who have had chickenpox is likely to get shingles.
getting a one-time dose of the shingles vaccine. Even if the shingles vaccine doesn’t prevent you from getting shingles, it can still reduce the chance of having long-term pain. If you have had shingles before, you can still get the shingles vaccine to help prevent future occurrences of the disease. There is no maximum age for getting the vaccine.
Side Effects
In May 2006, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved a vaccine (Zostavax®) to prevent shingles in people age 60 and older. The vaccine is designed to boost the immune system and protect older adults from getting shingles later on. Even if you have had shingles, you can still get the shingles vaccine to help prevent future occurrences of the disease. There is no maximum age for getting the vaccine, and only a single dose is recommended. In a clinical trial involving thousands of adults 60 years old or older, the vaccine reduced the risk of shingles by about half.
Vaccine side effects are usually mild and temporary. In most cases, shingles vaccine causes no serious side effects. Some people experience mild reactions that last up to a few days, such as headache or redness, soreness, swelling, or itching where the shot was given. When To Get the Vaccine The decision on when to get vaccinated should be made with your health care provider. The shingles vaccine is not recommended if you have active shingles or pain that continues after the rash is gone. Although there is no specific time that you must wait after having shingles before receiving the shingles vaccine, you should generally make sure that the shingles rash has disappeared before getting vaccinated.
A One-time Dose
Where To Get the Vaccine
To reduce the risk of shingles, adults 60 years old or older should talk to their healthcare professional about

and health departments. Most private health insurance plans cover recommended vaccines. Check with your insurance provider for details and for a list of vaccine providers. Medicare Part D plans cover shingles vaccine, but there may be costs to you depending on your specific plan. If you do not have health insurance, visit www.healthcare.gov to learn more about health insurance options.
Who Should Not Get the Vaccine? You should NOT get the shingles vaccine if you have an active case of shingles or have pain that continues after the rash is gone have ever had a life-threatening or severe allergic reaction to gelatin, the antibiotic neomycin, or any other component of the shingles vaccine. Tell your doctor if you have any severe allergies. continued on page 14

Could Vaccines Make Shingles a Rare Disease? The shingles vaccine is basically a stronger version of the chickenpox vaccine, which became available in 1995. The chickenpox shot prevents chickenpox in 70 to 90 percent of those vaccinated, and 95 percent of the rest have only mild symptoms. Millions of children and adults have already received the chickenpox shot. Interestingly, the chickenpox Sources nihseniorhealth.gov

vaccine may reduce the shingles problem. Widespread use of the chickenpox vaccine means that fewer people will get chickenpox in the future. And if people do not get chickenpox, they cannot get shingles. Use of the shingles and chickenpox vaccines may one day make shingles a rare disease. Another risk factor is aging. As we age, our natural immunity gradually loses its ability to protect against infection. The shingles virus can take advantage of this and become active again. Conditions that weaken the immune system can also put people at risk for shingles. Shingles is especially dangerous for anyone who has had cancer, radiation treatments for cancer, HIV/AIDS, or a transplant operation. Our immune system gradually loses strength as we mature. After people reach 50, the body is not able to fight off infections as easily as it once did.

Baseball and the Civil War:
M A R Y L A N D
a “Home Run” in American History By Auni Gelles heartofthecivilwar.org HERITAGE AREA
Artist Otto Botticher captured this game of baseball in mid-1862; from the National Museum of American History.
B
aseball season has returned. Regardless of which team you follow or your athletic prowess, baseball offers a distinct cultural value unmatched in American society. Baseball gained popularity in the 1840s as Americans moved into cities, had increased leisure time, and formalized the sport’s modern rules. Although more than 50 teams were established by 1860, the sport remained restricted to the upper classes. The Civil War facilitated the spread of baseball as soldiers moved from hometowns to battlefields and came to know—and love—the game. The sport offered entertainment during encampments and even imprisonment. Throughout the war, soldiers stationed in Washington, DC played on the White House Ellipse and the Capitol grounds. The lithograph above depicts Union prisoners playing at Salisbury Confederate Prison in North Carolina in 1862. Baseball helped to boost morale during the Civil War and led to its growth in the late 19th century. Fans may recall that Union General Abner Doubleday—who fired the first shot in defense of Fort Sumter and www.va l l ey rev u e . co m
Vintage “Base Ball” players at a tournament near Gettysburg.
later gained fame during the Battle of Gettysburg—receives credit for inventing the sport. His hometown of Cooperstown, New York is home to the National Baseball Hall of Fame. While some cheer the Doubleday connection, the historical record does not. A trip to Doubleday Hill, a unique monument honoring his contributions both to the war and to the game, in Williamsport is nonetheless worth the trip. Partake in America’s pastime this season by cheering on the Frederick Keys or Hagerstown Suns. Or, join a vintage “Base Ball” team that follows 19th century rules of play (and fashion!); learn more at vbba.org. MAY 2017

They are freely available for the taking from a public tap or for wading in the largest open display of spring waters in the Blue Ridge. A thriving spa community has grown up around the springs. Berkeley Springs boasts three times as many massage therapists as lawyers with a menu of more than 50 cutting edge spa treatments available daily to 21st century health seekers.
