A varicela é uma doença contagiosa de origem viral que afeta, sobretudo, crianças. Causada pelo vírus Varicella-zoster, esta doença inicia-se no trato respiratório e dissemina-se depois pelo organismo atingindo a pele. Como outros herpesvírus o VZV tem capacidade de permanecer latente nos gânglios nervosos e pode reativar originando uma doença conhecida por zona. A infeção por VZV é passível de ser prevenida por vacinação, no entanto, a vacina contra VZV não confere total imunidade contra o vírus, no entanto pode ajudar a diminuir as consequências mais graves associadas ao desenvolvimento da doença. Chickenpox is a contagious viral disease that affects mainly children but can also affect adults. Caused by the varicella-zoster virus, the disease starts at the respiratory tract and spreads through the body, reaching the skin. Like other herpesvirus VZV is capable of latency in nerve ganglia and can reactivate causing a condition known as zoster. The infection may be prevented by vaccination, however, the vaccine does not provide complete VZV immunity, but they can help prevent more serious consequences associated with the development of the disease.
