How long is chicken pox contagious?

Avoiding some company

Caution: If you have friends who are pregnant or are actively trying to get pregnant, or have newborns (especially bottle fed ones) or family members with a weakened immune system (leukemia, transplants, aids) warn them of the chicken pox kids' exposure and avoid contact until all the scabs have have dried and fallen off. These people with weakened or negligible immune systems could die from contracting the chicken pox (varicella).
