I am mother of two boys. Older one was recently exposed to scarlet fever. Other one is still a baby and doctor said that he most likely won't get it. I am very worried about younger one. Can a baby get scarlet fever?

I think that everyone in house is at risk of infection, even a baby. A baby may get scarlet and I’ve seen infants show symptoms, but they recovered 100%. I think you should ask for second opinion.
