Chicken pox02/03/2003 |
My children have had the chicken pox vaccine. I have heard that they can still get chicken pox. Is this true? Should they not go around someone with chicken pox, kind of like they don`t play with someone with the flu or strep? What percentage of kids still get the disease despite being vaccinated?
