Note the 2nd to last paragraph:
"of greatest concern is the chickenpox vaccine. It must be kept frozen at an average temperature of 5 degrees or lower and should be kept in the dark. Children who receive an ineffective vaccine could easily become infected because the disease is fairly common in the U.S. ":rolleyes:

good to know, the same that those vaccines with thymerosal like flu shots sometimes are no shaken and the last person gets the most of the preservative.
