§ 2106. Communicable diseases; almshouses; removal of inmates. If a
communicable disease exists in any home operated by a public welfare
district or in the vicinity thereof, and the physician thereof shall
certify that such disease is likely to endanger the health of the
inmates thereof, the public welfare commissioner of the district may
cause such inmates or any of them to be removed to such other suitable
place in the county as the local board of health of the health district
where the almshouse is situated may designate, there to be maintained
and provided for at the expense of the county, with all necessary
medical care and attendance until they shall be safely returned to such
home or otherwise discharged.
