Chicken Pox ( Varicella) Vaccine:

      Now that the chicken pox vaccine is universally mandated, it is important to realize that
unvaccinated children living in an increasingly vaccinated world have deminishing chances of
contracting the natural disease. These unvaccinated children will grow up without immunity
to chicken pox. Thus, they are at risk for getting it as adults, where scarring and pneumonia are
more likey from the virus. Risk of Shingles in adulthood is no greater in vaccinated children
 than in their unvaccinated counterparts. A second booster in Kindergarten is now being recommended.
