Abstract
Varicella (chickenpox) and zoster(shingles) are distinct clinical entities caused by a single member of the herpesvirus family, the varicella-zoster virus(VZV). The particular clinical manifestations of these two diseases are due to differences in the host and in the circumstances of infection, not to differences in their etiologic agent. Varicella, an acute, highly, contagious exanthem that occurs most often in childhood.
