A live attenuated varicella-zoster virus (VZV) vaccine was developed by Takahashi and his colleagues in the early 1970s (1). The vaccine has been designated the Oka strain after the child from whom the virus was isolated. Attenuation was believed to have been induced by serial passage of the original clinical isolate at various temperatures and in different cell lines (1, 2). Numerous studies throughout the world have subsequently shown the vaccine to be safe, immunogenic, and highly protective in both healthy and immunosuppressed individuals (3–6).
