Guest guest Posted December 3, 2009 Report Share Posted December 3, 2009 Can you catch shingles from another who has shingles? If not, can you please show me documentation that shows that shingles is not contagious to others who have had chickenpox. I have family that is determined to be vaccinated for shingles because they know so many people who suffer from shingles and they don't want to get it. Also, is the shingles vaccine the same as the chicken pox vaccine only it is made for adults? Finally, can children who are not vaccinated, and who have not had chickenpox yet, catch chickenpox from someone who has been recently vaccinated for shingles? Thanks, beth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
