About Chickenpox. Chickenpox used to be a common childhood illness in the United States, especially in kids under age 12. It's much rarer now, thanks to the varicella vaccine that's given when kids are between 12 and 15 months old, followed by a booster shot at 4 to 6 years of age. Caused by the varicella-zoster virus (VZV), chickenpox is very contagious.
