Is Chicken Pox the same as Varicella and how do I show that I am immune?

Chicken Pox is also known as Varicella. Your facilities may request proof of immunity for Chicken Pox. IntelliCentrics follows the recommendations of the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP).

There are three ways to fulfill this requirement:

1)  A statement signed by a qualified medical provider that you have a history of Chicken Pox disease

2)  A document from a qualified medical provider with dates of immunizations

The Chicken Pox vaccine given in 2 doses at least 28 days apart is considered Assumed Immunity. In an epidemic, healthcare facilities may elect to take special precautions for those who have Assumed Immunity (Note: This vaccine was developed for use in the USA in 1995).

3)  Proof of immunity via an antibody IgG Titer test

This can be a statement from a qualified medical provider that includes antibody levels from the lab test or the actual lab test results (Note: Equivocal is considered NOT immune).
