Icon86 Chicken pox = no shingles

Comment: I had heard often that if a person had chicken pox as a child
this would prevent them from getting "shingles" as an adult. A friend has
been diagnosed with shingles & claims its was because he had chicken pox
as a child that he was able to have shingles. Which is it?
