If you have never had chicken pox and choose to have a chicken pox vaccination, does that then mean you could get shingles, or does the immunity conferred by the CP vaccine also protect against shingles?

Thanks. My question was actually asked, more clearly I think, in the comments, and the answer is that research is being done. So no one has the answer! I believe I'm safest avoiding both these vaccinations and seeking antiviral treatment if I should ever actually get sick from the virus.
