Original Note:
There is no evidence COVID vaccines cause shingles. Shingles, also known as herpes zoster, is caused by the reactivation of the varicella-zoster virus, the same virus that causes chickenpox. There's no indication that COVID vaccines increase the risk of shingles. https://www.goodrx.com/conditions/covid-19/covid-and-shingles https://www.biospace.com/article/covid-19-vaccines-don-t-cause-shingles/
