水痘疫苗可預防水痘。水痘多發生在12歲以下的兒童身上。免疫力較低人士患上水痘後可能面臨更高的併發症風險，如肺炎和腦炎。對於初生嬰兒來說，若染上水痘，病情可能更加嚴重。
疾病知多點：
水痘是由帶狀疱疹過濾性病毒(HZV)所引起，是兒童常見的急性傳染病，多發生在五至十歲的兒童身上。水痘令全身皮膚出現豆狀的水泡及發熱，而且水泡結痂後有機會留下永久疤痕。抵抗力弱人士有機會染上併發症如猩紅熱及肺炎。水痘的傳染性極高，尤其是幼兒及在患者的初期。患上一次後，身體會自動產生免疫能力，因此能終生免疫。但水痘病毒可潛伏於體內，多年後活化而引致「帶狀疱疹」，俗稱「生蛇」。最常見是經人與人接觸直接傳播。若婦女在懷孕首三個月染上水痘，可導致胎兒先天性缺陷，如四肢痿縮，眼睛和中央神經系統受損。
The chickenpox vaccine prevents chickenpox. Chickenpox mostly occurs in children under 12 years old. People with weakened immune systems may be at higher risk of complications from chickenpox, such as pneumonia and encephalitis. For newborn babies, the condition may be more serious if they contract chickenpox.
Know more about diseases:
Chickenpox is caused by the herpes zoster virus (HZV) and is a common acute infectious disease in children, mostly occurring in children aged five to ten years. Chickenpox causes bean-shaped blisters and heat to appear on the skin all over the body, and the blisters may scab and leave permanent scars. People with weak immune systems may develop complications such as scarlet fever and pneumonia. Chickenpox is highly contagious, especially among young children and in the early stages of illness. After being infected once, the body will automatically generate immunity, so it can be immune for life. However, the chickenpox virus can lie dormant in the body and activate after many years to cause "shingles", commonly known as "herpes zoster". It is most commonly spread through direct person-to-person contact. If a woman contracts chickenpox in the first trimester of pregnancy, it can cause congenital defects in the fetus, such as limb atrophy and damage to the eyes and central nervous system.
