Vaccinate all children against CHICKENPOX
Dear Minister,
Please can you introduce a UK wide vaccination against the 'varicella zosta' or 'chickenpox' virus.
Please can you introduce a UK wide vaccination against the 'varicella zosta' or 'chickenpox' virus.
Why is this important?
In the US, Australia and Japan vaccination is already in place. It's an awful childhood disease to suffer through and many teenagers and adults contract this with far more damaging complications later in life.
The cost to the NHS would be easily off-set by not having to deal with chickenpox complications and parents not needing to take time of work to look after sick children or themselves.
