Apparently the virus that causes chickenpox (herpes zoster) remains latent after the initial infection subsides and is held in check by your immune system. As your immune system slows with age the virus can again gain the upper hand and shingles results.
It would appear that the influence of the Pfizer COVID vaccine can also tip the balance in favour of the zoster vrus as Shingles is one of the prevalent Adverse Events of Special Interest reported by Medsafe. Also the shingles vaccine is the one vaccine that it is advised that shouldn't be administered in combination or close to the COVID one.
