From January 2026, the chickenpox vaccine is now part of the routine childhood
vaccination programme. It's replacing the MMR vaccine and will be offered as a
combined MMRV vaccine at 12 and 18 months, protecting your little one from measles,
mumps, rubella and chickenpox. Speak to your GP, practice nurse, or health visitor if
you have any questions.

Why it matters
Did you know? Every year in Wales, over 300 people are admitted to hospital with
chickenpox. While most children recover quickly, some can become seriously ill. The
MMRV vaccine helps protect your child from complications. Make sure your child
attends their vaccine appointment.

The MMRV vaccine has been safely used in many countries for years. Your GP, health
visitor or practice nurse can provide trusted advice to help you make an informed
decision for your child.

Is your child due their 12 or 18-month vaccinations? The MMRV vaccine is now being
offered, protecting against measles, mumps, rubella and chickenpox. When you receive
your appointment invitation, please attend to help keep your child healthy.
