    Author: Pisano SRR, Ryser-Degiorgis MP, Rossi L, Peano A, Keckeis K, Roosje P.
    Journal: Emerg Infect Dis; 2019 Jun; 25(6):1235-1238. PubMed ID: 31107228.
    Abstract:
    Fox-derived Sarcoptes scabiei mites caused an outbreak of mange on a farm in Switzerland in 2018. Pruritic skin lesions suggestive of S. scabiei mite infestation developed in 4 humans who had direct contact with affected farm animals but not foxes. Sarcoptic mange is continuously spreading; such outbreaks affecting humans could start occurring more frequently.
