Chickenpox can be caught from the fluid in the blisters of someone with shingles, though this is rare. The person with chickenpox is contagious from the beginning of the illness (up to 2 days before the spots appear) until about 5 days after the first spots appear. So long as there are no new blisters or moist crusts on spots, the person will not be contagious even if there are still crusts on the skin. Chickenpox is very contagious (easy to catch).
