Shingles (also known as shingles, zoster) is the result of reactivation of the dormant herpes zoster virus in the patient's body, which is also the virus that causes chickenpox. To prevent the virus from reactivating, Shingrix Kit vaccine is a very effective solution.

Chickenpox is a highly contagious disease caused by a virus (varicella zoster virus - abbreviated as VZV). This virus also causes shingles (also known as herpes zoster). Before the chickenpox vaccine, up to 90% of people would get the disease before the age of 15. Today, thanks to the vaccine, the disease is less common, but small outbreaks still occur in Vietnam in the spring.

Shingles is a multi-acute infectious disease caused by the herpes zoster virus, which can occur at any age and in many different locations on the body. Shingles in the ear is quite rare compared to other locations, however, patients cannot be negligent because shingles in the ear has a high risk of complications and causes meningitis.
