Contagious Skin Infection? Don't Tell The Kids Parents....

From Youtube
Several customers say they're upset about learning "second-hand" that a popular children's clothing store was shut down because of an infectious skin infection.

They lied to customers - everything from 'computer problems' to 'refurbishing'

1) Scabies is not a disease. It's like lice, but sexually transmitted.

2) It doesn't take 4-6 weeks to show up, woman. Calm down. I don't care what the news report says - they're bugs. If you have them, you'll know.

3) I really don't see why everyone is so upset. The company closed the store as soon as they found out, and they're having it professionally cleaned. Wash the clothes and give the sluts time off. No harm done.

1) Scabies is not an STD You need close skin-to-skin contact with an infected person to catch scabies. Most cases are probably caught from holding hands with an infected person. This was found....in a children clothing store!

2) Scabies can often be misdiagnosed as itching healthy skin until the ruptures come through 3-4 weeks later, if you have kids you don't want them near this, children especially young children have reduced immune system.

3) The store decided to not tell anyone, thus meaning potential spread of infection...

From Wiki: "Scabies is transmitted readily, often throughout an entire household, by skin-to-skin contact with an infected person (e.g. bed partners, schoolmates, daycare), and thus is sometimes classed as a sexually transmitted disease. Spread by clothing, bedding, or towels is a less significant risk, and is almost impossible."

From MedicineNet.com: "It is hard, if not impossible, to catch scabies by shaking hands, hanging your coat next to someone who has it, or even sharing bedclothes that had mites in them the night before. The physical contact required to contract scabies may, however, be sexual, and sexual contact is the most common form of transmission among sexually active young people."

Hand-holding won't do it. If your kids are engaging in skin-to-skin contact with employees at a clothing store, I'd be worried about that much more than them potentially getting bugs.

Also, most kids are healthier than adults. Kids get more exercise and have been exposed to environmental pathogens for a considerably shorter length of time. Children as a general rule have the healthiest immune systems. And your immune system really has nothing to do with bugs burying themselves in your skin. The body can generally kill off the larvae, but not the actual bugs, but that's not an immune system issue.
