The COVID-19 pandemic has exposed how vulnerable adults are to infectious diseases. Unfortunately,  prior to the pandemic, at least 3 out of every 4 adults were missing one or more of four routinely recommended vaccines. As such, the National Adult and Influenza Immunization Summit (NAIIS), along with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and 30 other groups, have issued a call to action to healthcare professionals to ensure their adult patients have the recommended vaccinations, especially with the ongoing threat of COVID-19.  <a href="http://ShinglesDoesntPlayFavorites.com" rel="noopener" target="_blank">ShinglesDoesntPlayFavorites.com</a>    </p>
<p>Low vaccination rates among adults puts them at risk for preventable diseases like shingles, a painful rash that develops on one side of the body.[i] Did you know that approximately one in three people in the US will develop shingles in their lifetime?[ii]  As a person ages, the immune system is impacted in such a way that the body is less capable of preventing the virus from re-activating and causing shingles.[iii] Anyone 50 years or older – even if you’re a healthy, active person – is considered at-risk for shingles. </p>
<p>Interior designer and gymnastics judge Kathlyn, 54, thought she had an outbreak of adult acne or a spider bite, but soon realized something was wrong when the bumps spread across half her face causing her eye to swell shut. Much to her surprise, Kathlyn’s doctor immediately diagnosed her with shingles, leaving her in pain and unable to spend time with her family. As someone who did not have shingles on her radar, Kathlyn works to educate others and urges them to talk to their doctor or pharmacist about shingles vaccination to help protect against the disease.</p>
<p>Kathlyn and Dr. Len Friedland, Vice President and Director, Scientific Affairs and Public Health, Vaccines, at GSK, will be available to discuss the topic of getting up-to-date on adult vaccinations and details about shingles.<br />

Carol Burnett, Cher, When Pigs Can Fly The Musical<br />
Robert Gordon Mackie shares What Peace Means to Him.</p>
<p>(born March 24, 1940) is an American fashion designer and costumer, best known for his dressing of entertainment icons such as Joan Rivers, Cher, RuPaul, Barbara Eden, Bette Midler, Diana Ross, Judy Garland, Liza Minnelli, Tina Turner, Carol Burnett and Mitzi Gaynor. He was the costume designer for Carol Burnett on The Carol Burnett Show during its entire 11-year run and designed the costumes for its spinoff, Mama&#8217;s Family, and for the 1993 television adaptation of Gypsy.</p>
<p>https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/a1/Curtain_Dress.JPG/220px-Curtain_Dress.JPG<br />
The Curtain Dress, worn by Carol Burnett on The Carol Burnett Showparody of Gone With The Wind.<br />
Mackie began his career as a sketch artist for legendary French haute couturier Jean Louis, who is perhaps best known for crafting stage gowns worn by screen legend Marlene Dietrich during her career as a cabaret singer. Mackie and future life partner Ray Aghayan worked with legendary costumer Edith Head in 1961 while working as a novice designer at Paramount Studios. In 1969, Mackie was hired to design costumes for Diana Ross, The Supremes, and The Temptations in the television special GIT:On Broadway.[citation needed]
<p>In 1972, he and Aghayan were nominated for Best Costume Design for &#8220;Lady Sings The Blues&#8221;, starring Diana Ross. Mackie and Diana Ross continued their collaborative efforts well into the 21st century, with Mackie designing stage costumes for Ross&#8217; 2010 &#8220;More Today Than Yesterday&#8221; tour.[citation needed] Mackie designed costumes for the Las Vegas Strip-based burlesque shows, Hallelujah Hollywood, which was inspired by the Ziegfeld Follies and ran at the MGM Grand (now Bally&#8217;s Las Vegas) from 1974 to 1980, and Jubilee!, which ran from 1981 to 2016. Both productions involve intricate, elaborate costumes and grandiose sets. Images of many of Mackie’s design drawings for these productions are available in the &#8220;Showgirls&#8221; collection from UNLV Libraries Digital Collections.</p>
<p>Two of Mackie&#8217;s best-remembered creations had a humorous aspect. While working on The Carol Burnett Show, he designed a &#8220;curtain dress&#8221; (complete with a curtain rod across the shoulders) that Carol Burnett wore in Went with the Wind!, a parody of Gone with the Wind. He designed the exotic ensemble worn by Cher at the March 1986 Academy Awards: black stretch pants, a bejeweled loincloth, knee-high boots, a black chainlink top, and a huge feathered Mohawk headdress that was one and a half times taller than her head. Introduced by Jane Fonda with the words, &#8220;Wait&#8217;ll you see what&#8217;s gonna come out here&#8221;. &#8220;As you can see,&#8221; said Cher, &#8220;I did receive my Academy booklet on how to dress like a serious actress.&#8221;</p>
<p>Mackie designed costumes for Whitney Houston, especially splashy evening gowns which she wore for many years during concert tours and award shows. He was often referred to as &#8220;the sultan of sequins&#8221; or &#8220;the rajah of rhinestones&#8221;, known for his sparkling and imaginative costume designs. He has won nine Emmy Awards for his designs, and has been nominated three times for an Academy Award.[citation needed]
<p>Mackie has said, &#8220;A woman who wears my clothes is not afraid to be noticed.&#8221;</p>
<p>In 1981, Mackie guest starred as himself on two episodes of the television series The Love Boat.</p>
<p>In 2002, Mackie was inducted into the Television Hall of Fame.</p>
<p>Personal life<br />
Mackie was born in Monterey Park, California to Charles Robert Smith and Mildred Agnes Smith. He attended Pasadena City College and Chouinard Art Institute but left without earning a degree from either school. On March 14, 1960, he married LuLu Porter (née Marianne Wolford), a singer, actress, and later an acting teacher. She had given birth to the couple&#8217;s only child, a son, Robert Gordon Mackie Jr. (called &#8220;Robin Mackie&#8221;), the previous year. The couple divorced in 1963. Robin Mackie, a makeup artist, died in 1994 of an AIDS-related illness, predeceasing his parents.</p>
<p>Mackie&#8217;s life partner was costume designer Ray Aghayan, whom Mackie had started working with as an assistant. The two worked together through the 1970s, as well as having separate clients. They remained together until Aghayan&#8217;s death in 2011.</p>
