For children older than 13 and those adults who have never had chickenpox, the chickenpox vaccine should be given in two doses at least 28 days apart. see more on chickenpox vaccine here: http://www.examiner.com/x-7707-Tampa-Disease-Prevention-Examiner~y2009m5d28-Vaccine-preventable-diseases-chickenpox

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