A doctor has provided 1 answer
Degree: The regular wild chickenpox will give a kid 50-250 spots along with fever and itching that can be tiring. Some patients will develop secondary skin infections like the flesh eating bacteria. Some adults can develop a severe chickenpox pneumonia and die. The idea of mild or severe is relative and usually defined by the person talking about it.
