In UK, Chickenpox cases is quite high where about around 300,000 cases a year. From that figure, most of them make full recovery but several hundred suffer complications such as blood poisoning, pneumonia, and infection by flesh-eating bacteria.

Because of that reason many expert panel of doctors, nurses and scientists are recommend all children and pregnant need routinely vaccinated against chickenpox. Not only they also advised to combining the jab with the MMR triple vaccine, creating a four-in-one shot.

Actually in the U.S., Australia and Germany, children are already routinely vaccinated against chickenpox and Irish guidelines advise that pregnant women be given the jab if they are not immune.

‘What we can’t do is predict the children who are going to die from it or get quite seriously ill and end up in hospital.’If you want to prevent the deaths, the only way to do that is to immunise everybody.’ Said Professor Adam Finn, a expert on child health and vaccination.
