Posting here isn't an endorsement, and in fact, I usually don't read these for days. I won't be removing them from here, because that's a lot of work. I'm just using this for RSS.

absolutely wild to see evidence come out that shingles vaccination has a strong link to reduction in alzheimers cases

(via https://mastodon.social/@mhoye/110459991081722237)

the idea that the generation after mine might literally luck into a significant reduction in alzheimers cases due to expanding shingles vaccination and/or the chickenpox vaccine is frankly a little spooky

EDIT: Important caveats brought up by @belarius here https://cohost.org/belarius/post/1591758-here-s-the-crucial-f, notably:

THIS IS A PREPRINT. The manuscript has not completed the peer-review process, and it may transpire that there are methodological or analytic problems that are identified at that stage that invalidate the above conclusions

I’m under the impression a childhood chickenpox vaccine confers ongoing immunity, while in some jurisdictions the shingles vaccine is (currently? I guess this could change eventually given this evidence) offered only to people 50 or older unless immunocompromised, so it’s a bit complicated
