How to avoid catching scabies
Stay away from skin-to-skin contact with an infected individual.
Skin-to-skin contact is the best way to catch scabies. If someone is infected with scabies, avoid close contact with them until they seek treatment.

Possible answers:
a). Contact has to be prolonged to pass scabies, so gestures like a handshake will rarely pass scabies to another person. Longer physical contact, such as hugging or sharing a close environment with skin contact, can potentially infect someone.
b). If you are sick or at school or work, use a coughing mask or office towel when you can. Only touch infected people and avoid getting any behind-the-ear contact made after the rash or blisters have dried.
c). A dirty and raw wound will initiate the infection. This method is usually sufficient to avoid catching scabies.
d). You should also avoid touching people, pets, or children, including people who are infected with scabies, as they could spread scabies. If a person's skin-to-skin contact is a sign that they are infected, return their hands to the person, or contact your doctor.
