In the 1990s, the highest age-specific incidence of varicella was among children age 1 to 4 years, who accounted for 39% of all cases. 2002;15:507516. Like other herpesviruses, VZV persists in the body as a latent infection after the primary (first) infection; VZV persists in sensory nerve ganglia. Quantitative titer lab report showing negative/non-immune result to Rubella followed by 1 dose of MMR All health care personnel should be immune to varicella. If varicella and MMR vaccines are not administered at the same visit, they should be separated by at least 4 weeks. VAR vaccine is administered by the subcutaneous route. Varicella vaccine (as a 2-dose regimen if there is sufficient time) should be administered to immunocompetent patients without evidence of varicella immunity, if it can be administered at least 4 weeks before initiating immunosuppressive therapy. However, if a person is known to have a negative varicella Some experts suggest withholding steroids for 2 to 3 weeks after vaccination if that can be done safely. Pneumonia following varicella is usually viral but may be bacterial. Rare reports of congenital birth defects following maternal zoster exist, but whether they represent congenital varicella syndrome is unclear.

The reason(s) for this difference in age distribution are not known with certainty. Pediatr Infect Dis J 2002 Oct;21(10):9315. Children with a personal or family history of seizures of any etiology should ideally be vaccinated with separate MMR and VAR vaccines because the risks for using MMRV vaccine in this group of children generally outweigh the benefits. The Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) recommends that after being exposed to varicella or herpes zoster, people who do not have evidence of immunityand are eligible for vaccination should get varicella vaccine. Persons who are immunosuppressed due to leukemia, lymphoma, generalized malignancy, immune deficiency disease, or immunosuppressive therapy should not be vaccinated with a varicella-containing vaccine.
