Answer by mlgable
No you need the specific chicken pox vaccine to prevent chicken pox.

Answer by orange_blue_star
You need to get the Varicella vaccine. That's the one that helps prevent chicken pox.
Usually the diptheria is in combination with the tetanus shot. (It's called T/d).

You can get an MMR which helps prevent Measles, Mumps, and Rubella.

Why would you think that vaccinations for diphtheria and measles would prevent chicken pox????? Does buying new tires prevent your car from running out of gas?

Get the facts on the chickenpox vaccine, treatment, causes (varicella zoster virus, VZV), symptoms and signs (itchy, red rash).
