question about mmr & chicken pox vac.

[chozen]

is it safe for a child who hasnt been vaccinated to be in close contact with child who just got mmr & chicken pox vacs.? just wondering because i know these are live vaccinations.

[Dr C]

Yes, it's safe. Otherwise those vaccines would routinely be avoided for kids who have a sibling under age 1 (who can't have had the vaccines yet).
