Nothing's sacred. Medical information cannot even be kept a private matter.


But I'm wondering, since shingles (which I've, apparently ignorantly, always thought was the elderly's chicken pox) is highly contagious, do those who've contracted it go on some PUBLIC health list? Is this why this must be known and reported?

While this not completely uncommon, shingles usually affects people 50 and over. To see someone so young get it is quite odd. I’m hope he’s getting enough rest and is eating well. Weakening of the immune system is no joke
