Can your sister catch shinges from you because shes pregnant and getting married on Friday?
Do you mean shingles? Your question isn't clear. If you do mean shingles the virus can be passed on by direct contact with fluid from the shingles blisters, until they dry up and crust over. If your sister is pregnant then you or anyone else who have shingles should avoid contact with her as she would be at risk of catching shingles.

A person with shingles needs to take precautions around a pregnant woman without evidence of immunity to chicken pox. The pregnant woman should discuss the matter with her health care provider, who may have checked immunity at the preconception visit or a prenatal visit.
