💉 Chickenpox (varicella) Vaccine 💉
Since 01/01/026, the routine childhood vaccination schedule now includes a combined MMRV vaccine which offers protection against chickenpox as well as measles, mumps, and rubella. We have had a number of enquiries from parents of youngsters who have already completed their preschool vaccination programme regarding their child’s eligibility for this vaccine. A catch-up campaign will run from November 2026 for youngsters born between 01/01/2020 and 31/08/2022. Currently youngsters born before 31/12/2019 are not eligible.
