It is important that schools or classes, when closed for
Measles, should remain so a sufficiently long time so that
the disease (as it then exists) may have time to burn itself
out. No shorter period than three weeks should be allowed,
owing to the average incubation, and duration, of this particular
disease being ten days and three weeks respectively.
