Streatham
Westbury Chemist in Streatham provides Chickenpox Vaccines for children and adults. Prevent your child and yourself from contracting the disease by taking the vaccine.
Can I go to work if my child has Chickenpox?
It’s safer to let your work know that you have a child at home who has contracted Chickenpox. The disease is infectious and can affect other people around you and your child, and adults are prone to get very sick if they catch it.
In addition, your child should not be attending school or nursery if they have Chickenpox as it can infect other children.

Chickenpox vs Shingles
Chickenpox and Shingles are from the same family of viruses. Although they are not the same virus or iteration, they’re formed from the same virus, causing different results.
Chickenpox is a milder illness that affects children, whereas the shingles come long after if the chickenpox virus is reactivated in your nerve tissue. Despite being affected once by Chickenpox in your youth, it does not mean that you cannot contract the shingles at a later time in your life.
