Chickenpox is a viral infection, very common and highly contagious disease,
newborns and adults may experience more severe symptoms then children who are at
risk before the age of ten. Vaccinations have reduced its incidence. The symptoms
for chickenpox do not appear until the infectious stage has begun these are fever,
fatigue, itchy rash, loss of appetite.

This virus is transmitted by air (coughing or sneezing) or physical contact with a sick
person, one or two days later a pimple like eruptions appear on the body they are
filled with fluid and look like blisters, then they crust over. During this period
itching can be very annoying but scratching them can lead to infection and scarring.

Most of us are infected with this disease ones in our lives, after the fist exposure to
the virus, the body builds up immunity in the form of antibodies that recognize the
disease and kills the virus before it can infect us again.

Chickenpox normally starts and finishes in about two weeks but people with weak
immune systems or newborns can have very serious complications, if infected
prenatally there is a risk of birth defects.
