Can using hand sanitizers prevent scabies?

Asked by Dutchess_III (46830points) June 8th, 2013

? Will hand sanitizers kill them or prevent them? I mean, if someone has scabies and they touch a baby will it pass it from their hand, just from a touch (like a germ)? I’m thinking it takes more than a touch…more like close exposure, skin to skin, just like you can’t get lice from a “touch”. But I could be wrong (for the first time EVER.)
