  • Has had shingles in the last 12 months.

    People who have had shingles/herpes zoster previously are still at risk of future episodes. Immunocompetent people should delay Shingrix® for at least 12 months after an episode of herpes zoster. Immunocompromised people are at higher risk of recurrence. They can receive Shingrix® from 3 months after the acute illness, following an individualised risk-benefit discussion on the ideal interval for vaccination..
