I work in the hospital so I wouldn't want to infect others.

No. Not unless you touch the fluid and then go and deliberately touch someone else.
"Chickenpox is highly contagious and is spread through the air when infected people cough or sneeze, or through physical contact with fluid from lesions on the skin."
just shower and change into clean scrubs when you get to work and all will be fine.
p.s. I hope you had a really good case of them, re-infection can occur! If you see even one bump, clock out and leave the hospital.

Yes you can infect the elderly and children. I suggest he use the product I used for my chicken pox. I did a complete bowel cleanse and took a great herbal product. Don't delay get this now!!! I do not sell this cause you cant but I do highly recommend it. It is caled Super tonic. The echinacea is great too. I'll send you a link. If you love your usband do this now! I work in an ER and a man about 45 came in w/chik px and coded.That means he whent into respiratory failure..serious stuff these chick pox of today. They have advanced thx to trafitional medicine allowing them to become resistant to drugs that kill our livers anyway. Well hun Good Luck!

Yes the chicken pox could get to others through you.
but I think, it is still okay, because chicken pox is not dangerous, it's just trouble you for a while, and you will get itchy, that's all.
My suggestion, don't get intouch with your husband before go to work, and wash you hand and arm, as soon you arrive at the hospital.

The only ones that could get affected by the chickenpox that your husband has is those who have never been exposed to chickenpox. But as for you infecting them, as the other poster said the answer would be no.
But check with the dr to be on the safe side.

No. They have to have DIRECT CONTACT to catch it. Like actually touching him, not like being in the room with him or being around some who has been in contact.

If you don't have it anymore - then no. It is highly unlikely that you can transmit the virus if you do not have any symptoms.
