With mass migrations and people invading our country its no surprise that diseases that were eradicated from the UK arrive again. Scabies is endemic in developing countries and it was found in the migrant centres soon after economic migrants arrived on our shores. The British government is fully aware that migrants are bringing infectious diseases into the UK and that is putting our indigenous population at risk.

Not only is the UK seeing a continuing outbreak of it, but it is also being found in care homes this article in the Daily Mail states. You may well ask how is it getting into care homes? The response is obvious.
Ministers are being urged to instruct the NHS to order Ivermectin to combat the outbreak because it is proven to be effective at treating scabies.
