incubation period of scarlet fever
12h-7d (nfectious)
incubation period of malaria
5-15d (vivax/ovale)
The time from the initial malaria infection until symptoms appear (incubation period) typically ranges from: 9 to 14 days for Plasmodium (P.) falciparum. 12 to 18 days for P. vivax and P. ovale. 18 to 40 days for P. malariae.
How soon will a person feel sick after being bitten by an infected mosquito? For most people, symptoms begin 10 days to 4 weeks after infection, although a person may feel ill as early as 7 days or as late as 1 year later. Two kinds of malaria, P. vivax and P. ovale, can occur again (relapsing malaria).

treatment of osteomyelitis
Traditionally, antibiotic treatment of osteomyelitis consists of a 4- to 8-week course.
minimum 6 wks
Recommended agents are as follows:
Piperacillin-tazobactam 3.375 g IV q6h or
Ampicillin-sulbactam 3 g IV q6h or
Ticarcillin-clavulanate 3.1 g IV q6h
Patients with penicillin allergy and osteomyelitis from contiguous spread of infection:
( Clindamycin 600 mg IV/PO q6h or metronidazole 500 mg IV/PO q8h) plus ( ciprofloxacin 750 mg PO or 400 mg IV q12h or levofloxacin 750 mg PO daily), or moxifloxacin 400 mg PO daily
If MRSA is suspected:
Add vancomycin 15 mg/kg IV q12h
If a contraindication exists to the use of vancomycin, an alternative anti-MRSA agent such as linezolid, daptomycin, or ceftaroline [6] may be used
Oral therapy following IV treatment for patients with osteomyelitis from contiguous spread of infection:
Amoxicillin-clavulanate 875 mg/125 mg PO q12h or
Ciprofloxacin 750 mg PO q12h plus clindamycin 300-450 mg PO q6h or
Levofloxacin 750 mg PO daily plus clindamycin 300-450 mg PO q6h or
Moxifloxacin 400 mg PO daily
