Varicella vaccine meningoencephalitis in a child receiving autologous bone marrow transplantation
CONCLUSIONS: Our experience highlights the importance of conducting a thorough medical history regarding vaccination and serological status of newly immunocompromised patients. Intensive chemotherapy succeeding live vaccine administration <4 weeks could have influenced early and severe viral reactivation. Early initiation of prophylactic antiviral treatment is questioned in such circumstances.PMID:37395442 | DOI:10.1111/petr.14562

Reactivation of VZV from DRG results in herpes zoster, often decades later. VZV is the only airborne human herpesvirus and the only herpesvirus whose symptoms (both varicella and herpes zoster) can be prevented by vaccination. Herpes zoster is significantly more common in patients with bone marrow transplants, hematological malignancies, oral Jak inhibitors, SLE, and the elderly. The brand new subunit vaccine, Shingrix...
