Vaccination is not 100% effective but will lessen the effects of chicken pox considerably. In the early stages, it is possible to have a jab that will mitigate the effects (can’t recall what it does). My hubby contracted it some years back and DSes all kena - DS1 was really mild becos of vaccination; DS2 was the poor boy…full of poxes, he was only a baby and we didn’t think to vaccinate him (YET).


I recall my mum making parsley (?) water for DH to drink everyday. he couldn’t take a lot of food also (esp chicken and duck…old folks but safe better than sorry). Veg stall holders may know what drink to make for them.
