Congenital varicella syndrome - underdeveloped limbs.

25. Chicken Pox

26. Pathogenesis 1. DNA Virus. 2. Enters the body via system. 3. Enters the sensory nerves, but conditions inside the nerve does not allow for full expression of the virus. Epidemiology 1. fewer than /year 2. of humans are infected by the age of 15. incubation is days. 3. Infection can spread days before rash & lesions crust over. Prevention 1., live, attenuated varicella vaccine. 2. proven safe in over million cases.

27. B. Shingles - Herpes zoster Symptoms Occur at any age, but are more common in (weaken immunity). Enters the sensory nerves, but conditions inside the nerve does not allow for full expression of the virus. Rash lasts weeks, but pain may last for several months. along the nerve path.
