What does immune to VZV mean?
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).
What category of viruses does the shingles virus belong to?
The shingles virus, also known as varicella-zoster virus (VZV), belongs to the herpesvirus family. Specifically, it is classified as a member of the Alphaherpesvirinae subfamily.

However, IgG antibodies are typically measured to indicate past infection or immunity.
