Chicken Pox
Was anyone exposed to chicken pox that didn't have a break out?

Adult? Child?

My youngest was exposed several times before he finally came down with them.

Not me. I had the chickenpox. So did my older son when he was very little. These days, they have a vaccination for it. I wonder if it works. Does anyone have a child who got the shot AND got the chickenpox anyway?

Child. I was exposed, but never had a break out, so don't know if I've ever had chicken pox.

All 3 of mine had the vaccine and none of them got it. I had it when I was just 2 weeks old. I got it over with quick! I was even smart back then!

I had a very mild case when I was 9. Girl has never had them before and she's 11. Are they common anymore?

The vaccine is not 100% effective. Some can even develop chicken pox after getting the vaccine, but it's from the vaccine and is usually mild...but can be transmitted to others. It's weird...I did a lot of reading about it when my grandkids were getting the vaccine.

It doesn't sound like it. Do you know someone w/them now?

Yea, the younger the child is when they get it, the breakout is milder than when they are older.
