Are ticks and heartworm a concern where you are?

I'm absolutely fine with them, especially the ones you mentioned because they have been around for quite a while. I believe the kinks have been worked out if they existed. I know that for me to be in grade school, vaccines were mandatory at that time. A doctor would come to the school and vaccinate all the children at once as well as giving physicals. I was exempt from the school vaccines because I got them all from my pediatrician. I wonder if the school was just providing these free of cost so that healthcare was accessible for all students.
I know someone who had a very bad reaction to the HPV vaccine.
I got the shingles vaccine(s) and while the first one was easy, that booster shot made my entire arm throb for the following 2-3 days. I couldn't raise my arm above my head.
I think anyone who
wants
them should have access to them, and I would not want to see them banned in any capacity. Likewise, I think that people need the freedom to opt out and
choose
for themselves if they do not want to receive jabs of any kind. It's the whole
"compelling"
part that I have a hard time with.

Decades after the fact, my ass muscles still in pain from the Gigantic
used to introduce something like ten-million units of penicillin into the unsuspecting recruits bloodstream. I think the syringe needle contraption was called a " barrel" needle? But whatevs, motherfucker forced big strapping guys on to knees!!
Flashbacking aside, I consider vaccines a necessary evil: intentional putting "poison" into the body for a beneficial outcome.
Here in Florida, we lead the first world in vaccine denial, disinformation, and demonization. The idiot gov appointed some fool state surgeon general who appears to endorse the full spectrum of medical quackery.my fondest hope is that trump taps this witch doctor as us surgeon general and his fatal advice gets adopted by magatards and they begin dying off because of this guys advice
