What reason is chickenpox?

First: varicella is an epidemic virus, highly infectious, mainly through respiratory tract or direct contact to spread. If you have direct contact or saliva contact with patients infected with the virus, you may have chickenpox. If the immunity is low, it is easy to be infected and the incidence rate will be very high.

Second: because children's immunity is low, and the immune system is immature, so they can't resist this kind of virus very well, and are easy to be infected. If pregnant women are infected with chickenpox during pregnancy, it may also be transmitted to children. Children younger than six months can get antibodies from their mothers, while those older than six months may be infected.

Third: although children after varicella is not easy to relapse, but may also suffer from herpes zoster, need special attention. Children infected with chickenpox must go to the hospital for treatment, according to the doctor's advice to treat. In the early stage of infection should be isolated until the scab location. During this period, children who have been in contact with patients should also pay special attention to observation, so as not to infect more children.
