Chickenpox is a common but highly contagious infection caused by the varicella-zoster virus. While it’s usually mild in children, it can lead to serious complications in adults, babies, and people with weakened immune systems. That’s why the chickenpox vaccine is a smart choice for many families and individuals.
At J E Williamson Pharmacy in Bishop’s Stortford, we offer the chickenpox vaccine as a private service—no GP referral needed. The vaccine is suitable for both children (from 12 months) and adults who haven’t had chickenpox before.
You may benefit from the vaccine if you:
Have never had chickenpox or the vaccine before
Are a parent who wants to protect your child from the virus
Work in a healthcare, childcare, or public-facing profession
Live with someone who has a weakened immune system
Are planning pregnancy and haven’t had chickenpox
The vaccine is given in two doses, spaced at least four weeks apart. Full protection develops after the second dose.
