This version of Figure 1 includes bug fixes, performance updates, and this clinical pearl from pediatrician @MikeGinnyMD:
“If a rash appears contact related and is not bothering the child, then: 1) HANDS OFF. No lotions, no potions. 2) WATCH AND WAIT. Let the disease come to you (or vanish mysteriously). In other words: Don’t just do something; stand there!”
