Your concerns: My neighbour has chickenpox

Dear Doctor, My neighbour’s child has chickenpox. I am worried because my 5-year-old son likes playing with him and I fear that he might also contract it and eventually infect all of us at home. Am I just being paranoid or the threat is real? What can I do to avert the risk of chickenpox? Abbey
