Okay, SO you got the vaccination!.!.!.

SO if you did get the chicken pox, I mean, IF Somehow, Out of all your 400,000,000,000 Cells :P 1 of them catches the pox, and it spreads, It wont be bad!.

If you didn't get the vacctinonation, then if you did get the chicken pox, they would be much more sevire, but since your did get it, Even if you did get the pox, They would be controlled!.

The Odds of you getting the pox, are 001/100

So do not worry just stay clear away from people with pox,

Good Luck(L) Nicole:)

The vaccination shot only lasts 7 years and then your body grows an immunity to it so actually the shot is bad for you because that is probably why you didn't get it when you were little but you could get them now!. I was 17 when I got chicken pox and IT SUCKED!!!! I had them really really bad all over my body, I was sick and I couldn't go to school for 2 weeks!. But I am still alive so I made it through it but yes it is possible to get them and it is a bit worse when you are older but i don't think anyone has ever died from them!. Good luck Www@Answer-Health@Com

No vaccine is 100 percent effective in preventing disease!. For the chickenpox vaccine, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimates that nine out of 10 people who are vaccinated with two doses are completely protected from chickenpox!.

If a vaccinated person does get chickenpox, it's usually a mild case with only a few pox sores that may resemble bug bites instead of the typical fluid-filled chickenpox blisters!. However, even a mild infection can be contagious!.

In the United States, chickenpox vaccination is a routine childhood immunization!. Children receive the first dose between the ages of 12 and 15 months and the second dose between the ages of 4 and 6 years!. Adults who have never had chickenpox or who haven't received two doses of the chickenpox vaccine also should get vaccinated!.

The only problem with making it into your late teens or early adulthood without getting chickenpox is that you are probably susceptible, and chicken pox when your in your teens or later is a miserable condition, with the disease being much more severe than you see in kids!. If you are sure that you never had chickenpox, you might want to consider getting the vaccine!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
