Sec. 370. Removal of sick.

The Health Officer is hereby empowered to order the removal
of all persons afflicted with any contagious disease, provided
proper isolation can not be maintained at place of sickness, to
some safe and proper place within the jurisdiction of the corporation,
when in his opinion, the public safety and health of the
City requires the same; to rent a suitable place for their comfort
and accommodations; to hire nurses and to provide the necessaries
for such as are in indigent circumstances.

Any person, either parent, guardian, master, mistress, or
owner of the house, where such disease may be (or the diseased
themselves, when responsible persons) refusing to comply with
the order of the Health Officer, or other authorized agent, shall
be fined $2.00 per hour during the time of such refusal to comply
with the order aforesaid, to be recovered by warrant before
the Civil and Police Justice, as other fines of the City. Provided,
nothing in the foregoing shall be construed to prevent the friends
and relatives of the diseased aforesaid from removing them to
places prepared by themselves when such places are approved
by the Health Officer, nor to authorize them to remove any subject,
at a period of the disease, when the life would be endangered
thereby.
