5. Tdap vaccine

This vaccine was supposed to be received while you were still an adolescent, but in case you didn’t and you have a grandkid on the way, this becomes one of the vaccines every senior should get.

But why should you take this shot? Well, it protects you from three diseases, and those are pertussis, or “the whopping cough,” tetanus, and diphtheria. The most important thing when you have a newborn grandkid is to get pertussis because this can easily be passed on to newborns, and many times the infections can get quite serious. From 2000 to 2017, babies under the age of two months accounted for 84% of pertussis fatalities.

But even if you have no grandchildren, this is still one of the vaccines every senior should get, and your doctor might recommend you take a booster once every 10 years.

  1. The so-called vaccines are hit and mostly miss! They are also dangerous for lots of people. Beware of the chances you take in having them administered!

  2. A question for you is it just the tdap vaccine that needs to be updated every ten years? I get the flu vaccine & if if the Covid is updated I get that. I also received the RSV vaccine but do other vaccines need to be updated is my concern? Thank you in Advance!

  3. I’m in my 75th year of life and I was exposed to and truly believed in early preventive vaccines but the COVID and the money hungry big pharma lost me with the rush to market crap they dished out. Now I’m very Leary. How much more studies have they conducted and how safe is the Covid vaccines are now?

  4. Please stop promoting ‘vaccines’ as the 100% protection for the older population. Have you ever posted an article with the vaccine related injuries/deaths, or at the very least, the serious side effects? Please respond with the article in case I just can’t find it. Informed consent for all biologicals and drugs should be mandatory.
    Thank you.
