Varicella Zoster (Shingles)
Anaphylaxis after zoster vaccine: Implicating alpha-gal allergy as a possible mechanism.
“Gelatin and other nonprimate mammal–derived products are common excipient ingredients in several vaccines, and it has been postulated that patients with alpha-gal allergy might react to these vaccines.”

Chickenpox attributable to a vaccine virus contracted from a vaccinee with zoster.
“Five months after 2 siblings were immunized with varicella vaccine, 1 developed zoster. Two weeks later the second sibling got a mild case of chicken pox. Virus isolated from the latter was found to be vaccine type. Thus, the vaccine strain was transmitted from the vaccinee with zoster to his sibling. Vaccinees who later develop zoster must be considered contagious.”
