Overview
Scarlet fever usually develops in children, just like colds or the flu are common in children. This disease is most common in 3-15 year olds with males and females being equally affected.[1] By the age of 10 years most children have acquired protective antibodies and scarlet fever at this age or older is rare.[2][dubious ]
