Single dose of chicken pox vaccine if taken earlier does not ensure 100%protection. There is always risk of breakthrough infection in modified form thus new recommendation is to give 2 doses at appropriate interval depending upon age of child. 2 doses ensures close to 100% protection.

Yes. No vaccine can give 100% protection. Though the disease after the vaccine would be less severe.
