SCABIES


“‘It is shameful’: why the return of Victorian‑era diseases to the UK alarms health experts” – Scabies is resurfacing along with rickets and scurvy amid overcrowding and austerity‑driven public service cuts in the UK.


“Scabies Is Making a Comeback” – Wired highlights the UK’s surge in cases, especially in northern England, coinciding with treatment shortages and possible treatment failures due to misapplication and resistance.


“Escalating Threat of Drug‑Resistant Human Scabies” – A 2024 review outlining growing permethrin resistance, driven by genetic mutations and detoxifying enzyme activity in mites. It calls for updated scabies control strategies and alternative treatments.


Although scabies is not nationally reportable in the U.S., localized outbreaks (especially in high-risk venues) suggest increased community-level transmission may be occurring under the radar.

Misdiagnosed and Misrepresented

  • Scabies is not a notifiable disease in the U.S., making national case-tracking inconsistent. 


  • However, research using epidemiological modeling and public data suggests a rise in case numbers.


  • In the absence of centralized reporting, digital surveillance (e.g. search trends) offers an informal but useful proxy for trend detection.
