A recent report found more than 90% of patients affected by a chickenpox outbreak in New York City had no documentation of receiving a chickenpox vaccine.
Just 1.4% of cases were among people who received two vaccine doses.
Had to look up the date of the vaccine, looks like it became commercially available in 1984, and licensed in America by 1995. If you’re 30-40+, you were probably forced to have it as a kid.
Back in my day we got chickenpox and we liked it.

I don’t think I’ve ever had the vaccine. I did have chickenpox before 1995.
Back in my day our parents had parties for chicken pox. The older you get, the worse it is.
There was no vaccine when I was a child.
I got it from my sister as a kid. I felt fine. She is six years older and was pretty bad with it.
My brother caught it first. He developed keloids from it. I was maybe 6 or 7 at the time. I had to wear mittens on my hands till it healed.
