ChickenPox

Chickenpox are just around the corner nowadays. it was reported in our company that our other camp accomodation has a number of 20 persons having chickenpox.

But medical experts says, when you already had chickenpox when you were a child, you won't have it again now. :)

Good thing, i had it when i was in grade school. imagine if you got it now while you're an adult, you'll have scars all over your body after.

Stay away from people who has chickenpox especially when they are coughing or sneezing AND don't touch the fluids coming out from the blisters.

Chickenpox can be very dangerous for adults, even lethal due to high fevers. Best to have it when you are young.

Many kids in the West are vaccinated against it nowadays but even the vaccination is not 100%.
