- Vomiting in the past 24 hours
- 100-degree fever (under the arm) or higher in the past 24 hours, before fever reducing medication is given.
- 3 or more abnormally loose stools in the past 24 hours
- Conjunctivitis or pus draining from the eye
- Undiagnosed rash or rash attributed to a contagious illness or condition
- Significant respiratory distress
- Chickenpox
- Bacterial infection (child can return after 24 hours of antimicrobial therapy)
