The good news is that you can prevent it with a safe and effective vaccine, now available at home in Dubai.
Our clinic offers licensed medical professionals who visit your home to give you and your family the chickenpox vaccine. No waiting rooms, no long trips, and no unnecessary exposure to other illnesses — just high-quality care, right where you are.
CHICKENPOX VACCINATION AT HOME
Chickenpox is a contagious viral infection caused by the varicella-zoster virus, marked by an itchy red rash, small fluid-filled blisters, fever, and fatigue. It spreads easily through coughs, sneezes, or direct contact with the rash. While usually mild in children, it can lead to serious complications in adults, pregnant women, and people with weak immune systems, making prevention through vaccination important.

Chickenpox Vaccine
The chickenpox vaccine (also known as the varicella vaccine) is a safe and effective way to protect against the varicella-zoster virus.
It contains a weakened (live attenuated) form of the virus that trains your immune system to recognize and fight it in the future — without causing the full illness.
Key Facts About the Chickenpox Vaccine
➤ Purpose: Prevent chickenpox or make symptoms much milder if infection occurs.
➤ Schedule: Usually given in two doses –
➤ First dose: 12–15 months of age.
➤ Second dose: 4–6 years of age.
➤ Adults without prior infection or vaccination: two doses at least 4–8 weeks apart.
➤ Effectiveness: Provides around 90% protection; breakthrough infections are usually mild.
➤ Type: Live attenuated vaccine (contains a weakened virus).

Who should not be getting a chickenpox vaccine?
Chickenpox is a frequent illness among children. It’s usually a minor condition with few consequences. After infection, nearly all children gain immunity to chickenpox, so they only get it once. Adults are more susceptible to sickness.
Chickenpox, on the other hand, puts certain people at a higher risk of catastrophic consequences. Among them are:
Persons with weaker immune systems due to illnesses like HIV or treatments like chemotherapy, pregnant women...
Chickenpox can be particularly dangerous to an unborn child if caught by a pregnant woman.
It has the potential to produce a variety of significant birth abnormalities as well as severe illnesses in the newborn.
The chickenpox vaccine is very safe, with most people experiencing no issues. Mild side effects like slight redness or soreness at the injection site, a mild rash, or a low-grade fever may occur, but they usually disappear within a few days. Serious reactions are extremely rare.
