Chicken pox


Chickenpox is a common childhood illness with 90 percent of the cases occurring in children younger than ten years of age. Before the availability of the varicella vaccine in the U.S., almost everyone developed chickenpox. Most people who are vaccinated will not get chickenpox. Those who are vaccinated and develop chickenpox usually have a mild form of the illness. They have fewer spots and recover faster.Chickenpox is transmitted from person to person by directly touching of blisters, saliva or mucus of an infected person. symptoms include sudden onset of slight fever and feeling tired and weak. as i hear from every one getting chicken pox when your young is much better than getting them when your old.
