Apologies for another spotty thread.
Ds, 3 vomited last night and then we noticed pin prick spots on his face, bottom, back of neck. Today they had disappeared but this evening they have reappeared and his face is now covered in red blotches. He also has the pin prick rash on back of neck, but nowhere else. He is well in himself, no temp but a little peaky.
He has had the MMR so I can rule out 3 possibles; he hasn't had chicken pox but he is not itchy and there are no blisters. Likewise, I have discounted prickly heat as he is not itchy.
I would send him in but 1) what is nursery policy on rashes without obvious illness 2) is it possibly viral and therefore contagious? I've trawled dr google and nothing infectious fits the bill 3) is it ethical?
Any opinions would be really helpful!

Would you send DC to nursery if they had unexplained rash?
