Don't know if you could actually say any of that is true...
We are not exposed to most of those diseases now but I bet if we were we test positive for them without getting sick from them. We don't test for any of those i bet or extremely rare if we do.
Shingles vaccine nor any others are 100% effective, one is 51% effective in people over 70.
Like I said differences between viruses explains why some vaccines are more effective.
Transmission rates and how quick the onset is I'm sure has alot to do with it.
Some shots do require boosters later in life or going to certain areas of the world.
Perhaps the main advantage to this vaccine is it will shorten the time you are sick/contagious.

Sounds like booster shots will be needed possibly yearly like the flu since it is mutated and will continue to do so.
