Not likely. This might be a misplaced average. While Shingles can break out any time your immunity is weakened most people don’t get it until they’re old. For example: four brothers including myself: one got it, once. On the other hand I believe like two out of three elderly will have an outbreak, and repeatedly
Yeah, but I got it when I was 29. The doctor told me it's pretty weird for me so young to get an outbreak, but not unheard of. It was the doctor who also told me I'll likely get regular outbreaks throughout my life, but yes, she did mention more likely the older I am.
