Date of exposure Chicken Pox (Varicella) What is it?
Chicken pox is a common illness caused by the varicella-zoster virus. It causes a mild fever, and an itchy skin rash (pox) of small red bumps that blister, ooze, and then crust over. The rash often starts on the abdomen, chest and back, and then spreads to the face and limbs. some people may show only a few pox, and others may be covered with lesions. The illness usually lasts for 5-7 days. Although chicken pox is usually a mild illness for children, it can be more severe for young infants, adolescents and adults. In addition, chicken pox can be a life threatening illness for people with immune problems (e.g., HIV/AIDS, cancer chemotherapy, organ transplant, taking steroid medication). If a pregnant woman catches chicken pox, it can infect the fetus and cause abnormalities of the limbs, eyes and nervous system, or newborn chicken pox which can be fatal. How is it spread?
Chicken pox is very contagious. It is a respiratory disease that is spread by contact with nasal mucus and saliva. it can be spread by coughing and sneezing, kissing on the lips and sharing food, eating utensils and mouthed toys. It is also spread by touching your hands to your nose and mouth, reusing tissues, and forgetting to wash your hands after blowing noses. It spreads most easily in crowded and poorly ventilated rooms. Rarely, it can also be spread from contact with the oozing skin lesions. When is it contagious?

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, every year approximately 5000 to 9000 hospitalizations and 100 deaths in the United States result from chicken pox. Normally a mild disease of childhood (it affects 4 million U.S. children each year), chicken pox may be severe in infants, adults, and people with impaired immune systems.

Mac users: please note that our site is optimized for the Safari browser Miscellaneous How did chicken pox get its name? Originally Published: December 20, 1996 Dear Alice, How did chicken pox get its name? Alice put this question to a few colleagues and friends and found that none of these people knew, with any degree of certainty, the source of the name "chicken pox." With some of these older names and sayings, it can be difficult to know and understand their origins. The most plausible explanation is that the skin of a person with the illness resembles that of a chicken right after being plucked. These days, many of us would fail to make this connection, being members of such an automated, urban-based society. Most people today have probably never seen a chicken being plucked we simply pick it up at the grocery, already neatly wrapped in plastic and ready to cook. From what Alice understands, however, pulling the feathers out of a chicken's skin tends to make the skin red and bumpy for a brief moment. This is just one idea that sounded reasonable to Alice. Perhaps other readers know better....

Chicken Pox
Chicken pox, like measles, go on the rampage during the months from late winter to early spring. It is the case that each year there are a few scattered cases of chicken pox. Every second or third year there is an upsurge of a sufficient number of cases to be called a minor epidemic. The reason for this is that during an epidemic year, enough children of susceptible age get the disease and are immune thereafter while the younger preschool children do not get it. In their turn, two or three years later, they become the susceptible epidemic cases. Chicken pox is one of what used to be a very common group of viral contagious diseases of childhood. The others were mumps, three-day or German measles (rubeola), and the seven-day or regular measles (rubella). These three have become relatively uncommon these days because of the frequent use of a fairly effective vaccine. Like all contagious diseases of childhood, the chicken pox rash is preceded by two to three days of viral cold-like symptoms which include head congestion, malaise, eye irritation, cough, and fever. At about the time the fever reaches its peak (from about 102-105 degrees Fahrenheit by mouth) the pox rash appears. The rash first is noted on the neck and upper trunk area. Then, over the following few days, spreads over the face, head, arms, lower body, and legs. Each pox is a raised blister-like eruption with a clear fluid inside. If you look closely enough at larger ones, you will see an umbilical-like depression in the center.

... Solutions A to Z Chicken Pox
Also known as varicella , chicken pox is a highly contagious viral disease characterized by fever (usually mild) and a rash (sometimes severe) consisting of tiny blisters or vesicles. Caused by one of a group of organisms known as herpes viruses , it can occur at any age but is most common in childhood. In fact, most children have had chicken pox by the age of ten. After one attack, the child is usually immune for life. However, the virus that causes chicken pox remains dormant in the body. Later in life, it can be reactivated, causing a painful outbreak of shingles , or herpes zoster Chicken pox itself is usually mild, but it can become severe in newborns and children whose immune systems have been weakened by cancer, cancer treatments, AIDS , or immunosuppressive therapy to prevent rejection of transplanted organs. It can also cause severe complications, including pneumonia, in adults who escaped the infection during childhood. Epidemics of chicken pox occur in all seasons but are most common in winter and early spring. HOW DOES CHICKEN POX DEVELOP?

Varicella vaccination
A vaccine against chicken pox (the varicella vaccine) has been available in India for some years now. It has good safety and effectiveness, and has been in use for almost twenty years in other countries.
  • It cannot be given to babies under one year of age. A single dose is needed up to the age of twelve years. This is given subcutaneously (under the skin). Beyond the age of 13 years, two doses at an interval of a month are needed. It is a safe vaccine. There may be some redness and pain at the injection site. Some children develop fever with chicken pox blisters, but this is usually very mild. The varicella vaccine is effective as a protective measure when given to children who have come into contact with the disease. It must be given within 48-72 hours of the exposure. Currently (October 2001), a single dose of this vaccine costs about Rs 1350.

The Review
Chicken pox doesn't come from chickens. This and other facts are tucked inside a creative story about the classic childhood illness. Jess is having fun the first few days with the chicken pox but soon the itching and midnight oatmeal baths become commonplace. Jess longs to go out and play but must stay in her pajamas. Luckily, the chicken pox doesn't last forever. Here is a great book that combines real facts with a child's view on the subject. This book is great for preschoolers to fourth graders. The Activities

A generation is spared the chicken pox
Researchers warn that the vaccine could lose effectiveness and that boosters may be needed.
By LISA GREENE, Times Staff Writer Published February 18, 2004 Just a few years ago, chicken pox was a child's itchy rite of passage. But in the nine years since a vaccine to prevent the disease was licensed, it has transformed the ritual of oatmeal baths and pox parties. A decade ago, 4-million U.S. residents got chicken pox each year. But these days, many children don't know anybody who has had it. The vaccine has "changed the disease," said Dr. Steve Karges, a young St. Petersburg pediatrician who has never seen a severe case. "It's taken it away from a generation." A study published today confirms how well the vaccine has worked to prevent chicken pox. But it also says the vaccine becomes less effective over time and raises questions about whether children might need a booster shot to be fully protected.

Parent Organization Questions Health Commissioner's Office On Chicken Pox Vaccine Recommendation To Prevent Strep A
Dawn Richardson, one of the founding parents of the group PROVE (Parents Requesting Open Vaccine Education) is challenging the Health Commissioner's office to substantiate their recommendation to have children vaccinated with the varicella zoster (chicken pox) vaccine as a preventative measure for Strep A. Also, because the vaccine is not recommended for children with egg allergies or those in close contact with newborns or pregnant women, these restrictions need to be publicized. Richardson states, "My concern is that since this vaccine is a live virus vaccine, more children may develop and spread chicken pox as a result of it. During this heightened concern over Strep A, mass vaccination with may actually put more children at risk for the Strep A infection. "

The affected child or adult may develop hundreds of itchy, fluid-filled blisters that burst and form crusts. Chickenpox is caused by a virus. The virus that causes chickenpox is varicella-zoster, a member of the herpesvirus family. The same virus also causes herpes zoster (shingles) in adults.

The first half of the week the child feels miserable from intense itching; the second half from boredom. Since the introduction of the chickenpox vaccine, classic chickenpox is becoming less and less common. Chickenpox is extremely contagious, and can be spread by direct contact, droplet transmission, and airborne transmission. Even those with mild illness after the vaccine may be contagious.

Chickenpox is a common disease caused by the varicella-zoster virus (VZV), which is part of the herpesvirus family. Although many people associate the word herpes with genital herpes, the herpesvirus family is made up of nearly 100 kinds of viruses, eight of which cause disease in humans. Examples of different herpesviruses are herpes simplex virus (which causes cold sores and genital herpes infections), Epstein-Barr virus (which causes infectious mononucleosis), and varicella-zoster virus (which causes chickenpox and shingles). Varicella-zoster virus spreads in the air through coughs or sneezes or through contact with fluid from inside the chickenpox blisters. Chickenp ox, which occurs most often in the late winter and early spring, is very contagious - if exposed to an infected family member, about 80% to 90% of those in a household who haven't had chickenpox will get it. However, immunization of children with the chickenpox vaccine that's now available is expected to decrease cases of the disease dramatically over the next few years. Although it's more common in kids under the age of 15, anyone can get chickenpox.
