I've booked my first dose for Friday. Looking up incidence, it's around 5 in 1,000 per year for my age range and sex. So that's a 1 in 200 chance of getting it this year. But in the twelve years until I'm 70, that multiplies up to be greater than a 1 in 20 chance. Worth the outlay I think, as fortunately I can afford it.
