What do you think about the varicella (chicken pox) vaccine?
Answers:
I think it's like any other vaccine.. good to have.
Not getting the vaccine can be more harmful than getting it sometimes. Your child may not have the chance to be exposed to it as a child, and the later in life the virus is caught, the worse it can be.
When I was young, there was no Varicella vaccine.. and I never had the Chicken Pox.. when I was 19, my baby cousin got it.. and so did I... I was in the hospital for weeks, and it caused alot of damage. The older you are when infected.. the more damage it can cause, and the longer it can take to recover.
I think its ok. I havent had proof it works yet. My son will start 1st grade this year, so we will see. I had him get it and he had a small reaction to it.
