Just 1.4% of cases were among people who received two vaccine doses.

    I’m so happy there is a chickenpox vaccine! I was at the edge of that, getting it before it was available. It was hell.

    It was more hell for my mother who had never gotten chickenpox as a child. So had it as an adult. Agony! And have to deal with sick twins!
