EWTN Catholic Q&A

shingles vaccine
Question from Joanne on 01-16-2013:

I have refused to get a shingles vaccine, because I understood that it was developed from aborted fetuses...now someone has said that there is a new line developed that does not use aborted fetuses or a stem line from them, and is perfectly moral to use, is this correct?

Answer by Judie Brown on 01-18-2013:

Dear Joanne:

The SHINGLES vaccine is tainted and I have no evidence of a new one at this time.
