The Varicella Vaccine protects against chickenpox, a highly contagious viral disease that can be more severe in adults than in children. Adults who have never had chickenpox or been vaccinated should receive the vaccine, especially healthcare workers.

Healthcare employers require documented immunity to varicella, either through vaccination, positive titers, or reliable history of disease. Two doses are required for full protection in adults.

BlueHive offers varicella vaccination and titer testing to help employers maintain a protected workforce.
