Chickenpox is a viral infection, very common and highly contagious disease, newborns and adults may experience more severe symptoms then children who are at risk before age of ten. Vaccinations have reduced its incidence. The symptoms for chickenpox do not appear until infectious stage has begun these are fever, fatigue, itchy rash, loss of appetite.

This virus is transmitted by air (coughing or sneezing) or physical contact with a sick person, one or two days later a pimple like eruptions appear on body they are filled with fluid and look like blisters, then they crust over. During this period itching can be very annoying but scratching them can lead to infection and scarring.

Most of us are infected with this disease ones in our lives, after fist exposure to virus, body builds up immunity in form of antibodies that recognize disease and kills virus before it can infect us again.

I deliberately chose current events, activism, human rights because I truly believe that reasonable prescription medication prices should be right of everyone in every nation.

I and many other health consumers believe that cost of prescription medications are much too high. In fact general concensus is that they are grossly, unfairly expensive.

The truth is it is far from rare for people on fixed incomes to have to literally choose between food and their health!!! I think this is terrible and frankly I hope you do too.

It isn't just persons with limited incomes. It's also working class and middle class persons with no prescription plan or no health plan for that matter who have to suffer.

Now you might be thinking, sure I feel sorry for these folks, but I don't have to worry. My drugs are included in my plan. Well if your health care provider gives you a prescription for a medicine that isn't covered, well to put it politely, "tough toughies". Unless you're able and willing to pay sky rocketing prices you might as well forget it.

Fact: Health Maintenance Organizations all have a formulary. If your medication isn't on it they won't pay for it. Maybe if you ask for a special request they will but that's rather iffy.

Here's a few examples of how pharmaceutical companies rip off public. Television, popular magazine advertizing. Perhaps you've seen or read these ads. They make new drug sound like practically e ighth wonder of world. Notice they rarely mention prices.
