Vaccines are a necessary evil. They sure beat getting chicken pox with 2 weeks of fever, crazed itching, quarantine not to mention lifelong scars and possible cases of shingles. Before the vaccine was available, I was exposed to, and got, chicken pox when I was pregnant, which was scary, but turned out ok.
Exposure to chicken pox actually can kill immune-suppressed people, such as transplant recipients, who may be relatives or friends of kids who attend such parties.
This is silly. How come you quarentine someone with
chickenpox and let AIDS carriers run rampent ?!?!?
Someone please explain this to me !
