Time to Talk About Chickenpox…
Season 1, Episode 1508, May 09, 2023, 08:00 AM
With reports of the increase in cases of Chickenpox in the news recently we thought for this week’s check-in with Pharmacist Elizabeth Roddick from New Life Pharmacy in Glasgow we should focus on Chickenpox.
Elizabeth began by explaining to RNIB Connect Radio’s Toby Davey about the connection between Chickenpox and Shingles and how ChickenPox is spread. Then to the itchy rash that people get with ChickenPox and how long the rash might last.
Finally Elizabeth talked about the vaccines for chickenpox.
