FACTS ABOUT chicken pox. Chickenpox is a very common infection in childhood.It is caused by the varicellazoster virus, which only infects people.
http://www.nwhu.on.ca/chicken.htm

Extractions: Chicken Pox Chickenpox is a very common infection in childhood. It is caused by the varicella-zoster virus, which only infects people. It is most common in children and is usually mild. When adults get it, however, they can be very sick. Most adults have already had chickenpox and will not get it again. Chickenpox is also very dangerous for people with immune system problems like leukemia or for people who are taking steroids. Chickenpox begins with a fever, followed in a day or two by a rash that can be very itchy. The rash starts with red spots that soon turn into fluid-filled blisters. New blisters may form during the next few days, and after a few days, crusts form over the blisters. The chickenpox virus spreads very easily through the air or through direct contact with the fluid in a chickenpox blister. Chickenpox is infectious until the last blister has crusted or five days after the rash first appears, whichever is shorter. The only way to stop the spread of the virus from person to person is to prevent infected people from sharing the same room or house, which is not very practical. Shingles (zoster) looks like chickenpox and is caused by the same virus but is found on only one part of the body. Shingles occurs in people who have already had chickenpox and is very infectious. It is possible to catch chickenpox from someone with shingles but someone cannot get shingles from someone with chickenpox.

But one morning at a day-care center in a small town near Concord, N.H., his body erupted in a rash and he was sent home. The boy had chicken pox and had infected more than a dozen of his classmates with the illness, even though most had also received the vaccine. Within two months, another dozen would also be diagnosed with what was, until the 1995 licensure of the varicella vaccine, one of the leading causes of morbidity among children. With this article

The primary illness, characterised by a generalised skin rash, is caused by the Varicella Zoster virus. Recurrence of the infection results in a localised skin rash, otherwise known as shingles or Herpes Zoster. Chicken Pox, often confused with Small Pox in earlier times, occurs seasonally and in epidemics the world over. Humans are the only known reservoir. The virus is spread by the respiratory route and is a common infection in children. Varicella Zoster virus is an enveloped virus of the herpes family. Chicken Pox occurs in susceptible individuals who are exposed to the virus after intimate contact. After entry through the respiratory route, the virus replicates, reaches the lymphatic system and then the blood stream. Roughly two weeks after the virus entry, a diffuse vesicular skin rash is seen. It is believed that the virus lodges in the sensory nerves after the rash clears only to reactivate at a later date, several years later, to cause herpes zoster.
Chicken Pox Vaccine Ok For Children With Kidney Disease
Researchers at the Johns Hopkins Children's Center report that two doses of thevaricella vaccine for chicken pox given one to two months apart can be safe
http://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/press/2002/December/021217.htm

Extractions: Researchers at the Johns Hopkins Children's Center report that two doses of the varicella vaccine for chicken pox given one to two months apart can be safe and effective in children with chronic kidney disease. The findings, reported in the January issue of Pediatric Nephrology , are critical for chronic kidney disease patients, particularly children who will eventually undergo a kidney transplant. After transplantation, immunosuppressive medications put these children at high risk for severe chicken pox complications, including pneumonia, brain inflammation, and death. "We recommend pediatric nephrologists include chicken pox vaccination as an important component of pre-end-stage renal disease and end-stage renal disease care," said the study's lead author, Susan L. Furth, M.D, Ph.D., a pediatric nephrologist at the Children's Center. Varicella vaccine contains small doses of weakened strains of the chicken pox virus that activate immune system "memory" and mount a protective response to subsequent exposures.

It can be a serious condition for a pregnant woman. Because the symptoms resemble the flu, it is hard to diagnose. A blood test is available to determine if toxoplasmosis is present. Chicken Pox When a pregnant woman becomes infected with the Chicken Pox virus, she and her baby are at risk. It can develop into pneumonia for the mother. Her baby can be at risk for birth defects such as defects of muscle, bones, malformed or paralized limbs, a smaller than normal head, blindness, seizures or mental retardation. If a pregnant woman comes in contact with someone who has Chicken Pox, she should call her doctor immediately. An injection may be needed to keep her and her baby safe.

http://healthlink.mcw.edu/article/901213120.html

Extractions: Subscribe now >> Q: I read an article about vaccinating for chicken pox. The article suggested that shingles erupt when immunity to the herpes zoster virus declines. It also said that the disease could be prevented in many cases by giving the chicken pox vaccine to middle-aged adults prophylactically. Is this true? Or, since the vaccine is so new, does anyone know yet? A: About 10% of adults in the US have never had chicken pox and are therefore susceptible to getting a more severe case if exposed. If a person is not sure if they were infected as a child, an inexpensive blood test is available. The vaccine is 70-90% effective in children, but not many studies have been done with adults. Side effects include fever, soreness at the injection site, and rash. As stated in an earlier column, shingles (reactivation of the chicken pox virus in nerves) is more common as people get older and their immunity declines. It is impossible to predict if, or when, a person who had chicken pox as a child will get shingles. The vaccine is an inactivated (not live) virus so it is conceivable that vaccinated persons may never get shingles because there is no virus to travel to the nerves and live dormant for years. We haven't had the vaccine long enough to know yet.

Extractions: Subscribe now >> The American Academy of Pediatrics and the American Academy of Family Practitioners both recommend that healthy individuals over age 1 be vaccinated for chicken pox. However, many parents have mixed feelings about having their children vaccinated. After all, we got chicken pox the old fashioned way. Why the fuss over a mild, childhood disease that rarely lasts more than two weeks? What are the vaccine's benefits? The chicken pox vaccine (technically called the varicella-zoster vaccine) prevents the disease or at least diminishes its severity. Children, therefore, will be spared the characteristic blistering rash and fever that accompany chicken pox. Although rare, chicken pox can cause complications including bacterial infections of the skin, pneumonia and encephalitis. Given the potential complications and number of work and school days lost, there has been growing support for the vaccine. What are the risks?

Symptoms A mild fever, stomach ache and general malaise can occur a day or two before the flat, red rash appears. This generally begins on the scalp, face and back, but can anywhere, although it is rarely seen on the palms of the hands or soles of the feet. Intensely itchy, tiny clear blisters soon follow. Fresh red spots are usually seen next to blisters and crusts. Most children are free from chicken pox in less than two weeks. Causes This virus spreads quickly, especially between children. Sneezing, coughing, contaminated clothing and direct contact with the open blisters are all ways of catching this relatively harmless infection. Prevention There is no licensed vaccine in this country at the moment.
Family Works!: Chicken Pox: New Treatment For An Old Disease
chicken pox New Treatment for an Old Disease. chicken pox (varicella) isone of the most common of the childhood viral exanthems (rashes).
http://www.princetonol.com/family/columns/pedgroup1.html

Extractions: Chicken pox (varicella) is one of the most common of the childhood viral exanthems (rashes). The infection is most common among children ages 5-10 years, though it may occur at any age. While varicella occurs year round, the peak periods occur in late autumn and in late winter/early spring. In a normal child, varicella is most often a benign, though highly contagious illness caused by the varicella-zoster virus. Frequently, at the onset, there is a low-grade fever, runny nose, and mild malaise (fatigue) followed by the appearance of an itchy rash. The lesions occur in rapidly evolving crops that initially involve the trunk and scalp and then spread to the extremities. Each lesion begins as an erythematous papule (red pimple) that enlarges over several hours to form thin walled superficial vesicles (blisters) each surrounded by a red halo. As the lesion dries out over several days, the red halo fades and the vesicle develops a crust or scab. The presence of all three stages of the rashpimples, blisters, and scabsin the same region of the body is the hallmark of chicken pox. In most children, the scabs slough off in 10-14 days. Chicken pox may occur on several body membranes as well including the eyes, mouth, external ear canal, vagina, and rectum. While skin lesions are generally itchy, these membranes lesions are sometimes painful. No additional treatment, however, is required for these lesions.

The New chicken pox Vaccine. About the Vaccine. In the United States chicken pox(varicella) is one of the most common diseases that affects children under ten.
http://www.babybag.com/chickpox.htm

Extractions: I n the United States chicken pox (varicella) is one of the most common diseases that affects children under ten. Each year there are about 3.9 million cases of chicken pox nationwide which affect more than 95% of all people in their lifetime. Though chicken pox is highly contagious, its effects are usually mild and not life-threatening to normally healthy children. However, according to the American Academy of Pediatrics, each year in the United States about 9,000 people are hospitalized for chicken pox and approximately 90 people die from the disease. Until recently, chicken pox could only be endured, but not prevented. Parents simply had to accept that their children would eventually get chicken pox, be ill for one to two weeks, require care, and possibly risk serious health complications. Now there is a new vaccine which can prevent or lessen the effects of chicken pox in children: varicella vaccine. All children should be immunized with the varicella vaccine between 12 months and 18 months of age regardless of prior history of chicken pox. Chicken pox is usually not a serious disease, however, immunizing your children when they are 12 months old and over can prevent them from getting sick. And your family will not have to suffer the other costs of children's illness such as missed work and health care bills. The varicella vaccine provides 95% protection from severe complications of the disease.

It affects almost everyone at some time in a lifetime, but usually occurs only once. It is believed to be a mild disease, but is associated with dangerous complications, especially in teenagers, persons with reduced immunity, and pregnant women. Children with reduced immunity, for example children with leukemia, or those taking anti cancer or steroid treatment, are also at high risk for severe varicella. Spread of Chicken Pox

Extractions: Approved by the ParentCenter Medical Advisory Board What's below: Should my child get the chicken pox vaccine? When should my child get the varicella vaccine? Who definitely shouldn't get the varicella vaccine? What other precautions should I take before my child gets this shot? ... Still not convinced? Should my child get the chicken pox vaccine? Ultimately it's up to you, but the latest thinking is that it's a good idea. This shot may seem unnecessary to you because childhood chicken pox (also known as varicella) is usually a mild illness. And your pediatrician may even tell you that it's better for your child to get the virus rather than the vaccine because it assures permanent immunity. Some doctors believe the immunity from the vaccine can wear off, leaving your child vulnerable to getting the virus as an adult, when the illness is more likely to be serious. But this advice is out of date, says Paul Offit, chief of infectious diseases at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia and author of Vaccines: What Every Parent Should Know . Although this vaccine was just recently approved, in 1995, it has been tested in children for 30 years. And it's very similar to other vaccines that have been around for more than 50 years and are known to provide permanent immunity, so there's no reason to believe that the immunity from this shot would "wear off." Here's why getting the vaccine is a better deal for your child's health than getting the virus:
