Definition
Scarlet fever is a relatively rare infection. It affects people who have a throat or skin infection caused by certain strains of the group A streptococcus bacteria
What is going on in the body?
Scarlet fever usually occurs after a throat infection with Streptococcus bacteria, such as strep throat . However, it may also occur after a strep infection of the skin, soft tissues, uterus, or a surgical wound. The bacteria that cause scarlet fever make a toxin that results in a skin rash . The rash usually spreads over most of the body, only to peel off a week later. Scarlet fever is now uncommon because of the regular use of antibiotics for strep infections.
What are the signs and symptoms of the infection?
The rash associated with scarlet fever usually starts on the neck, chest, armpits, and groin. Within a day, it can spread to the rest of the body. The rash is generally made up of a series of tiny pinkish-red spots and feels like sandpaper. About a week later, the rash usually peels off, much as the top layer of skin does after a sunburn. Other signs and symptoms are as follows:

SCARLET FEVER
Dear Alice, I have a case of Scarlet Fever and was wondering how contagious it is and for how long. Am I putting people at risk by being around them? Dear Reader,
  • a reddish-pink rash that spreads from the neck and face to the rest of the body (giving the disease its name) sore throat and fever
People who get scarlet fever usually develop a rash and other symptoms within two to seven days of exposure to infected nasal or throat secretions.
Now on to your specific questions: although it's possible to transmit the bacteria to close contacts, after you've been on antibiotics for twenty-four hours, you're no longer contagious. So soon friends will be able to wish you, "Gesundheit," when you sneeze without having to worry about getting red faced themselves.

Dr. Alan Greene on Scarlet Fever
By Alan Greene, MD, FAAP
What is scarlet fever and how common is it? What is scarlet fever and how common is it?
Scarlet fever is a colorful name given to strep throat that comes with a rash. Before antibiotics were available, this was a very scary infection. Now it is very easy to treat, but still dangerous if untreated. It's fairly common, but many docs don't use the words "scarlet fever" because that term conjures up frightening images from the past. I see a child with it about every two weeks or so. The rash usually feels like sandpaper and is often most pronounced just around the armpits. Click here to read more about Dr. Greene

http://www.english.upenn.edu/~jlynch/Frank/V1notes/scarlet.html
scarlet fever
A highly contagious disease, usually encountered in childhood, caused by hemolytic streptococus. It is spread through the air or through contaminated food, and was virtually untreatable before the development of antibiotics, although penicillin and gamma globulin have made it much less common in the twentieth century. Scarlet fever's onset is sudden (typically two to seven days after exposure), beginning with a sore throat, shivering, and a headache. It develops on the second day into a rash behind the ears, which spreads to the arms and legs. Thomas Sydenham, a physician of the late seventeenth century, describes its symptoms thus: "The skin is marked with small, red spots, more frequent, more diffuse, and more red than in measles. These last two or three days. They then disappear, leaving the skin covered with brawny squamulae [scales], as if powdered with meal." Scarlet fever leaves the glands swollen and often sensitive; in some cases, the squamulae on parts of the patient's skin peel off. The greatest threats arise from complications. Sinus infections, abcesses of the ear, and mastoiditis are common. In a few cases, scarlet fever leads to arthritis, rheumatic fever, or kidney failure.

Scarlet fever
Thanks to those of you who have written in response to my earlier posting, where I mentioned that I was taking care of my child who had scarlet fever. Sorry if I scared anyone (especially family members). The kid is fine. I had forgotten that the words "scarlet fever" conjure up an 18th century Hogarthian image of deathly ill children in a slum at least they did for me until I heard what the doctor had to say and did a little research . Scarlet fever is no longer one of those deadly childhood diseases. It is a kind of strep infection, and its virulence seems to have waned over the past century. The bacteria that cause it are one of the few type of bacteria that haven't evolved resistance to penicillin, so it is easily treated. If promptly treated, it usually isn't much of a problem although it certainly isn't any fun. Everybody here is fine. TrackBack

Strep Throat and Scarlet Fever
Strep throat is caused by group A Streptococcus bacteria. Strep throat is more common in children than in adults. Strep throat is easily spread when an infected person coughs or sneezes contaminated droplets into the air and another person inhales them. A person can also get infected from touching these secretions and then touching their mouth or nose. Symptoms of strep throat infections may include severe sore throat, fever, headache, and swollen glands. If not treated, strep infections can lead to scarlet fever, rheumatic fever, skin, bloodstream, ear infections, and pneumonia. Scarlet fever is characterized by a bright red, rough textured rash that spreads all over the child's body. Rheumatic fever is a serious disease that can damage the heart valves. If you suspect a case of strep throat in your child care facility: Call the parents to pick up the child and have her or him evaluated by a health care professional. Request that the parents inform you if the child is diagnosed with strep so that you can carefully observe the other children for symptoms of sore throat and fever and notify other parents to closely observe their children. A child diagnosed with strep throat may return to the child care facility 24 hours after the child has been on antibiotic therapy for at least 24 hours and if he or she has had no fever for 24 hours.
