What Are Precautions to Prevent Scarlet Fever?

My daughter may have been exposed to Scarlet Fever. Are there any precautions I should take now or do I just wait for her to show symptoms?

Scarlet fever is a characteristic rash in an individual who has a strep infection (commonly a strep throat). It is no more significant than the strep throat without rash.

The rash is NOT contagious.

Once a person has been treated with effective antibiotics for 24-48 hrs they are no longer contagious.

I would watch for symptoms of the throat rather than skin changes and should someone develop a sudden sore throat the doctor should be contacted.
