The quarantine is only temporary; you will be released as soon as it is safe, which will be determined by two successive nega tive throat cultures. A positive culture may mean that you are a "carrier" capable of transmitting the disease without damage to yourself. 3. Take your child to your doe tor for immunization, which will, In about six weeks to two months help protect him. If for some rea i son, this is not possible, you may 1 contact the Lane County Health Department, by appointment, for the same service.
