HPV affects the skin and mucous membranes. It is the second most common sexually transmitted disease. Varicella zoster affects the nerve cells but the lesion appear at the end of them in the skin.

The genus is Varicellovirus and the species is human herpesvirus 3, also known as varicella zoster virus.
Viruses cause both AIDS and chickenpox. AIDS is caused by human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and chickenpox is caused by varicella zoster virus (VZV).
A culture test and the most modern blood tests can distinguish chickenpox from herpes. Older-generation blood tests may not. Talk to your health care provider for information specific to your situation and test results.
One can find information about the Human Papilloma Virus from a variety of different sources. Some of the most authentic and helpful information about the Human Papilloma Virus can be found from the CDC and the National Institute of Health.

Human Papilloma Virus
Varicella Zoster Virus (VZV) (also known as chickenpox, zoster, human herpes type three varicella) is responsible for chickenpox and shingles in humans. An individual who is immune to the VZV may catch the virus; however, the body will battle and kill the virus before any notable effects occur. There is a vaccine that provides limited immunity (~10 years) to the virus (for those not already immune); however, the vaccine will not protect against shingles (a stronger vaccine in more limited supply is available for shingles).
For life.
Herpes is a family if viruses that cause different diseases. Herpes simplex I is associated with cold sores, herpes simplex II is associated with genital herpes (although those two can be reversed), CMV and EBV can cause mononucleosis and colds and congenital infections in babies as well as cancers, roseolovirus can cause roseola, human herpes virus 8 causes Kaposi's sarcoma and other cancers. The herpes varicella-zoster virus causes chicken pox (varicella). It lies dormant in nerve cells and years later it can reactivate to cause shingles (zoster). So shingles is one example of a herpes virus infection.
