duty of the local health officer to order such person in writing to
undergo an examination by a physician approved by the State
Commissioner of Health for such examinations. It shall be the duty
of the suspected person to submit to examination at such time and
place as ordered by the local health officer. The examination shall
include an X-ray of the chest, examinations of sputum, and such
other forms and types of examinations as shall be approved by the

person has active or suspected active tuberculosis disease, then it
shall be the duty of such person to comply with the orders of the
Commissioner.
