Hello
Varicella and JE (SA-14-14-2, live attenuated) are live vaccines. As per standard vaccination guidelines, two live vaccines can either be:
Given on the same day, OR
Spaced at least 4 weeks (28 days) apart if not given together
Giving two live vaccines too close (less than 4 weeks apart) may interfere with immune response.
Next Steps
If varicella was given on Day 0, JE vaccine can be given on or after Day 28 from that date.
