    Scarlet Fever

    Group A Streptococcus bacteria can cause illnesses like scarlet fever.  Scarlet fever is an infectious illness that normally affects young children (2-8 years old). It causes flu-like symptoms, including a high temperature, sore throat and swollen neck glands (lump on side of neck). It spreads when people cough. After 12-48 hours it causes small, raised bumps that feel rough like sandpaper on the chest and tummy area. On white skin the rash looks ping or red. It can be harder to see on brown or black skin, but you can still feel it.
