Vaccinia vaccine has better immunity persistence. A survey in the United States showed that 93% of children and 94% of adults had VZV antibodies after 5 years of immunization, and 87% of adults and 94% of adults had cell-mediated immunity.
After 6 weeks of inoculation, the serum positive conversion rate is greater than 98%, the population over 13 years old is inoculated with 2 doses (with an interval of 6-10 weeks) and the serum positive conversion rate can reach 100%. Within 72 hours of exposure to natural varicella infection, protection can still be achieved through immunization.
