If a person in the infectious stage of a venereal disease shall fail to report as directed to the physician in attendance on him for treatment, the physician shall report such failure to the local board, or to the state department which shall forward the information to the local board.
The local board may require such person to be examined as provided in sections 26:4-30 and 26:4-31 of this title.
