As the only person I know who never has had the chicken pox and who got vaccinated in my late 30s - YIKES!!!
But to speak to DrPhil's original post - that's pretty darn irresponsible to knowingly ship infectious material. Had something happened to the packaging, couldn't some unsuspecting person have been exposed? I realize that chicken pox isn't exactly anthrax, but still.
