I already had Hep-B, a job related precaution, sometime ago. Varicella is not
available in the UK and for IR-1, which mine is, visa the nurse marks the
exemption column on the vaccination form. If you will have to adjust status
once in the US, I understand you will have to have any vaccinations not
available in the UK then. As I get an unconditional 10 year green card I am
spared anymore jabs. (I think)

It all very brief, pardon the pun, and quite matter of fact. In fact the whole
thing is done in a down to earth, friendly manner and every one I meet was
very pleasant.
The map they supply is quite good and you shouldn't have any problems finding
the place.
