for NOAH's PARK:

♫ A long time ago, when the Earth was green.
More kinds of viruses than you ever had seen.
They spread around free as the Earth was being born.
But the best of all someday became the unicorn.

♫ we got green #YellowFever
and long necked #Flu

♫ some humpty-backed #Polio
and the #MonkeyPox too

♫ some #HPV and #ChickenPox
but sure as you're born

♫ You should never once again
see #Measles airborne

"Chickenpox vaccines for young children start across UK"

Excellent news. They should have started 25 years ago, of course, but better late than never.

Most children make an uneventful recovery from chickenpox, but some don't, and if you're really unlucky it can be fatal. This will surely save lives.

And even if you avoid serious complications, chickenpox is never fun. The vaccines will avoid a lot of unnecessary suffering and time off work.
