Victims of circumstance owe it to fate. Victims of choice owe it to themselves.

Once, if the immune system is intact. As immunity wanes later in adult life, the virus can reemerge as shingles.

For the majority of children and adults, Chicken Pox can only appear once. But it all depends on the immune system. Chicken Pox is a virus, which means that after it is in your body it does not leave. The virus settles down in one part of your body and that is where shingles will appear if they ever do. But if your body does not build that immunity to the virus then you can break out with Chicken Pox more times then normal.
