But how many people know to look out for scabies when choosing a nursing home? Recently, KGW8 NBC News reported on an 11Alive investigation that revealed how a Georgia nursing home resident died after a scabies infestation. Regardless of what really happened at this nursing home, this would not be the first report of scabies cases in a nursing home. By the way, you can't blame Fido or Snoopy for scabies, because transmission only occurs via human-to-human contact. Scabies does not always cause any symptoms.
