Hey everyone, I'm considering getting the Varivax vaccine for my kid, but I'm a bit worried about the potential side effects. Has anyone here had Varivax and experienced any serious issues? I've read about some severe reactions like shingles or allergic reactions, and it's got me a bit spooked. Any insights or experiences would be greatly appreciated! Also, how common are the mild side effects like fever or fussiness? Thanks in advance!
