Back in the 80s, but probably before and after that, parents would get their kids together for Chickepox parties. It would spread the chickenpox to ensure kids got it for the immunity, as it is much worse when you are an adult.
This happened to me as a very young kid (6 maybe?) in the early 90s. All my school friends got sick from the party. Apart from the itching and sore throat, I remember just playing with Lego for a few days instead of going to school and it was great.
One of the dads (neighbour) got it and had to stay at the hospital for a few days.

There was a South Park episode about it.

Oml I actually vaguely remember that episode, it was at Kenny’s house
