Varicella, or chickenpox, is the primary infection that occurs upon initial exposure to the varicella-zoster virus. When the virus reactivates, it causes recurrent infection known as herpes zoster. The risk of developing HZ is influenced by several factors, including age, gender, history of infection, immune status, and comorbidities.
