 AB    Thirteen children with human immunodeficiency virus infection acquired
       perinatally and with varicella were identified. Clinical and
       epidemiologic information, including the use of varicella immune
       globulin and acyclovir, was obtained and testing for antibodies to
       varicella-zoster virus was done. The 13 children infected with human
       immunodeficiency virus had an uncomplicated clinical course, and many
       had a significant antibody response to varicella-zoster virus.
