You can only catch chicken pox once in your life. You probably could pass it on, but most people have caught it already. Let them know, if an adult catches it, I heard it can be really bad.
Yes yes yes, everyone who has not been vaccinated or had chicken pox will easily contract it. that can be a health emergency, you need to stay home until you are completely healed.
If you have it you can spread it to others. If you dont have it, you cant spread it. Call a doctor to find out forsure, but I am 99% sure you cant give it to someone unless you have it yourself.
It is contagious.Normally if any one has chickenpox in a family it is most likely that it spreads from one to one
