Excellent addition to the growing body of evidence. Very hard as a clinician to look the other way and deny this... plus it is a really motivating additional bit of counseling to review with patients considering Shingrix.
Yes it's such clever design and great to have additional benefits that motivate patients (dementia is something I assume people are really keen to prevent). Shingtix also seems to have a benefit *above and beyond* Zostavax-not suprising given its higher efficacy against shingles but still good to see in the data: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41591-024-03201-5
Thanks. I appreciate the clear, compelling breakdown.
