I don't know why the embarassment, though.
Because lots of people aren't as smart as the Buffistas and think it's brought on by uncleanliness, multiple sex partners, etc.
Don't you have an elsewhere to be?

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
That's no fun, vw. But it's basically a chicken-pox variant, and can be brought on by stress.
Huh? Scabies are tiny insects that live in your skin, right?

I've heard tell that promiscuous people often get scabies. Because the bug eggs get on bedsheets, etc.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Well, if you'd clean up between sleeping with everyone in Sommerville. I mean, sheesh.

What is even happening?
Scabies isn't related to chicken pox. It's a mite. Also ringworm? Not worms. It's a fungal infection, like yeast.
vw, don't be silly, you goober. Not!Emily and Emily might want to look themselves over, though. I wonder how you caught it.

I had no idea. Sometimes my ignorance really is blissful.

When I had scabies, I had to apply the cream twice, about 7 or 10 days apart (IIRC). Because the eggs survive the first application, so you gotta get them after they hatch, but before they lay their own eggs.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
