641.  Duty Of Staff Not Under Quarantine In Whose Household An Infectious Disease Is Verified:-

A railway servant in whose household a non-quarantinable infectious disease, viz., chicken-pox, measles, mumps, scarlet fever, typhoid fever, leprosy or whooping cough is verified to be present in a contagious phase within a prior period not greater than the usual incubation period of such disease, shall attend at railway dispensary or hospital or other convenient place determined by the Medical officer at intervals arranged by the latter for examination, and will continue to do so until such time as it appears that the likelihood of the railway servant contracting the malady in question no longer exists. The railway servant shall also facilitate for a similar period such examination of the members of his household by the Medical Officer as the latter may reasonably deem requisite or, should the railway servant reside beyond the prescribed beat of the Medical Officer, he shall, when called upon, furnish a medical report obtained from a qualified medical attendant certifying to the health of household.
