Why #Vaccination is so important. This is a newborn with disseminated #Chickenpox-(varicella-zoster-virus-infection) that the baby acquired from the mother during delivery since she also had active chicken pox at that time. Child was extremely ill because of this disseminated infection. Unfortunately chickenpox vaccine is not readily available in our region. Get vaccinated!
