The most common symptoms of scabies are intense itching and a pimple-like skin rash. An exposed individual can be infectious to others, even in the absence of symptoms. Scabies can spread rapidly, including in healthcare facilities such as nursing homes and hospitals, causing outbreaks which can be difficult to control if not caught early.</p>", "f394434c-cdd6-422c-857c-73fdb47ec55d": "About Scabies"}
