An elementary school in Broward County, Florida, reported an outbreak of scabies in January and February 1975. Investigation identified 23 cases of scabies in schoolchildren, with at least two cases in each grade. The first case had appeared as early as July 1974, but most occurred after December. There was little contact between students in different grades; most transmission was found to have taken place within families and in the community. An additional 28 cases were found in families and contacts; altogether, 51 cases in 24 families were identified on clinical or historical grounds. Infestation was more frequent in children who exchanged clothes with friends or relatives and in those who, on occasion, spent the night with other children.
