     Extractions: You haven't been feeling so great for the last few days, and you've had a runny nose and a cough. Then one morning you wake up and stumble into the bathroom. You look in the mirror with blurry eyes and - yikes! You have red spots all over your face! Is it April Fool's Day? Did your little sister sneak into your room and go crazy with her red marker? Have aliens taken over your body? Actually, you have a common illness called chickenpox Chickenpox is caused by a virus called varicella zoster (say: vair-ih- seh -luh zos -ter). People who get the virus often develop a rash of spots that look like blisters all over their body. These spots can be anywhere from the size of a pencil's eraser to the size of a dime. Chickenpox is most common at the end of winter and the start of spring, and most people who catch it are under 15 years old. People who have it are most contagious (meaning they can spread the disease to someone else) during the first 2 to 5 days that they are sick - usually that's about 1 to 2 days before the rash shows up. So when someone gets the chickenpox, the person who gave it to her probably didn't even know he had it! A person who has chickenpox can pass it to someone else by coughing or sneezing. When he coughs, sneezes, laughs, and even talks, teeny tiny drops come out of his mouth and nose. These drops are full of the chickenpox virus. If someone else breathes the drops in or gets them on her hands and touches her mouth or nose, the virus can get in her body.

     Extractions: Communicable Disease (varicella zoster) Further Information Wadsworth Center for Laboratories and Research What is chickenpox? Chickenpox is a highly communicable disease caused by the varicella virus, a member of the herpes virus family. In temperate climates, chickenpox occurs most frequently in winter and early spring. Who gets chickenpox? Chickenpox is common in the United States. Virtually everyone who is not vaccinated acquires chickenpox by adulthood. Cases are expected to decline as vaccine coverage levels increase. How is chickenpox spread? Chickenpox is transmitted to others by direct person-to-person contact, by droplet or airborne spread of discharges from an infected person s nose and throat or indirectly by contact with articles freshly soiled by discharges from the infected person s lesions. The scabs themselves are not considered infectious. What are the symptoms of chickenpox? Initial symptoms include sudden onset of slight fever and feeling tired and weak. These are soon followed by an itchy blister-like rash. The blisters eventually dry, crust over and form scabs. The blisters tend to be more common on covered than on exposed parts of the body. They may appear on the scalp, armpits, trunk and even on the eyelids and in the mouth. Mild or inapparent infections occasionally occur in children. The disease is usually more serious in adults than in children. How soon do symptoms appear?

     If not, perhaps you should be. The older your child is when catching chickenpox, the more likely it is that he or she will have serious problems.

     Extractions: If not, perhaps you should be. The older your child is when catching chickenpox, the more likely it is that he or she will have serious problems. Because children today don't have as many chances to get chickenpox, their risk becomes higher as they grow older. The good news is that you've come to the right place to learn about chickenpox.

106. Adult Immunization Questions & Answers
     Adult Immunization Questions Answers. Are there vaccines that protect against communicable diseases for adults? Yes! Immunizations  
     http://www.nfid.org/factsheets/adultqa.html
     
     Extractions: Yes! Immunizations are readily available for such common adult illnesses as influenza (flu), pneumococcal disease and hepatitis B. Vaccinations against measles, mumps, rubella (German measles), hepatitis A, tetanus (lockjaw), diphtheria and varicella (chickenpox) are also needed by some adults. U.S. Public Health Service recommendations clearly identify people who are at risk for these diseases and who should be immunized to prevent these diseases and their complications. Consult your healthcare provider or local health department regarding your own immunization status and recommendations for immunizations. Why immunize? Some of these illnesses, once contracted, do not have a cure, and all may cause tremendous health problems or even death. Vaccines are some of the safest medicines available, are very effective, and can relieve suffering costs related to these preventable diseases for us all. Should all adults be immunized?

107. Chickenpox - Health File #44
     Ministry of Health Services, Health File 44, December 2003. Chickenpox.  
     http://www.bchealthguide.org/healthfiles/hfile44.stm
     
     Extractions: Health File #44, December 2003 Chickenpox Chickenpox is a common illness caused by the varicella-zoster virus. Most cases of chickenpox occur in young children. The illness may be more severe if it occurs in teenagers and adults. The varicella-zoster virus stays in the body after a person has chickenpox. It goes into a resting or inactive state in some nerve cells. Sometimes, years later, the virus may become active again, spreading from the nerve to the skin and causing a painful rash of blisters called "shingles". There may be a narrow band of painful blisters on one side of the back or stomach, on the face or scalp, or on the arm or leg. At first, a person with chickenpox may have a low fever, aches and pains, headache and loss of appetite. A few days later, a rash appears. Red spots appear first on the face and scalp, and then spread quickly down the body, and to the arms and legs. The spots become very itchy and begin to look like blisters, filled with clear fluid. After a few days, the fluid becomes cloudy, the blisters break, and a crust or scab forms while the skin heals. During this same time, new "crops" of spots come up, form blisters, and then crust over. How is chickenpox spread?
