Abstract
BACKGROUND: Scabies is globally ubiquitous and is a significant health issue for institutions, the economically disenfranchised, resource-poor areas, and for those with weakened immune systems. Topicals are usually effective, but are cumbersome and expensive to use in large populations and for those nonadherent to topicals. Oral ivermectin became available in Canada for the off-label treatment of scabies in the fall 2018. OBJECTIVES: To review the diagnosis and management of scabies. Dose schedules and concomitant management measures are outlined for scabies simplex and for crusted scabies. Ivermectin use is outlined. METHODS: Medline, colleague discussions, practice review, and experience from managing scabies in institutions. RESULTS: Oral ivermectin is safe, easier to use, cheaper, more effective, and more economical than topicals in widespread institutional scabies, for those nonadherent to topicals, and in crusted scabies. CONCLUSIONS: Oral ivermectin is the treatment of choice in large populations, the nonadherent, and for crusted scabies. Oral ivermectin is produced by Merck Canada as Stromectol 3 mg. The treatment dose for noncrusted scabies is 200 µg/kg, taken in a single dose with food. For example, 15 mg (5 tablets) for a 70 kg person. Retreat in 10-14 days to enhance effectiveness, and perhaps to reduce scabicide resistance.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
