Are Chicken Pox scabs contagious?I'm going through Chicken Pox. All the blisters have turned into scabs. Are the scabs still infectious?

No. (See source)

I think Chicken Pox is mostly contagious in the early, 'coming on,' stage. When my kids had it, the doctor said it was okay for them to go back to school when the poxes had 'scabbed over.' (But they felt they looked so ugly, they wanted to wait another week to go back to school. I let them.)
Hope you recover soon! Yuk! What an ugly disease!
Get the facts on the chickenpox vaccine, treatment, causes (varicella zoster virus, VZV), symptoms and signs (itchy, red rash).
