If you have never had chickenpox is it necessary to have the vaccination. I am 69?

As a child the doctor gave me 5 smallpox vaccinations before one took, and then it was a very slight take.(the scar was only about the size of a cigar

As a child the doctor gave me 5 smallpox vaccinations before one took, and then it was a very slight take.(the scar was only about the size of a cigarette ) The doctor said I had a natural immunity to the pox virus. I was around numerous people who had the chickenpox and never got them. What I want to know is do I need a chickenpox shot or a shingles shot?

or:They say that even though you haven't had chicken pox we have the gene in us chicken pox can cause shingles if you haven't had chicken pox nine times outta 10 you will be safe.
