1. Your age has no bearing on this. Your chances are zero to none.
2. Since you have already received the vaccine, you have a very minute chance of getting the disease. However, if someone around you in your family or your friends has not had the vaccine, you could spread it to them if the chickenpox virus is transmitted by you. Make sure you clean up very well when you get home so that you don't inadvertently expose anyone else.
3. i don't know but it would be very interesting if you would go see your little cousin. make sure you stay around him alot . then see if you catch chicken pox. then we will know how effective the vaccine is.
4. i had my chicken pox vaccine, but i did have a chicken pox after 18 years.only way you can save your self is do not go .....
