| | Pediatric Advisor 2005.2: Incubation and Contagious Periods of Infections |
 | | The contagious period is the amount of time during which a sick child can give the disease to others. | | | This content is reviewed periodically and is subject to change as new health information becomes available. | | | If your child was around someone who is sick and the incubation time has gone by, then your child was probably not infected and won't get sick. |

| | In reviewing these data, it is evident that the positive results were of greater value than the negative ones, although it is also apparent that there was sufficient consistency among the negative results reported by various investigators to give them considerable worth. | | | However, it was impossible to apply some of the information previously gained without confusing the present circumstances. | | | The importance of this was augmented by the tremendous use of human blood and plasma and stimulated the investigation of the period of infectivity of patients with this disease. |

| | NSDL Metadata Record -- ''The Incubation Period for Void Swelling and its Dependence on Temperature, Dose Rate, and ... |
| | Void swelling in structural materials used for nuclear reactors is characterized by an incubation period whose duration largely determines the usefulness of the material for core components. | | | Thus, a theory of incubation must treat time-dependent void nucleation in combination with dislocation evolution, in which the sink strengths of voids and dislocations change in concert. | | | Irradiation dose rate and temperature also affect the duration of incubation. |

| | Incubation period |
| | In order to help you identify the incubation period of the pathogen responsible for this outbreak, you will need to think about when you think each victim was exposed to the pathogen and when they actually started feeling sick. | | | Some diseases, like various kinds of food poisoning, have a very rapid incubation period of less than 24 hours; whereas some other diseases, like HIV, have longer incubation periods of months or years. | | | You may not be able to determine the exact incubation period for each host, but you can determine what the maximum possible incubation period could be. |
