Zoster
Shingles is caused by the same virus that causes chickenpox, called varicella-zoster. In fact, you can only get Shingles if you’ve had chickenpox. That’s because when chickenpox heals, the virus that caused it remains in your body. It lies dormant (asleep) in your nervous system, but can reactivate (awaken) at any time.

• 95% adults have “Shingles” risk;
• 3 individual 1 person in life experience “Shingles”;
• 50 years of significantly increased risk
Once the “Shingles“will also have the opportunity to relapse. Weak immune system (such as diabetes or cancer), work pressure, lack of sleep or illness are also in a higher risk group.
