Vaccine Madness?

Question:
 
I have a patient that needs varicella vaccine to go to surgery.  I have it to give to him but he has a infant child and is worried about taking the vaccine.  What is the rule on that?

Thanks

Answer:

First, he does not need varicella vaccine to have surgery. Who said that and why? Regardless, never seen or heard of this being a problem.

Academic questions--
breast milk?
age of baby?
Are there cultural or transgender sensitivity issues[grin]
