A scabies outbreak at a hospital has led to the closure of wards, according to BBC and Yahoo reports. Scabies, a contagious skin infestation caused by mites, spreads quickly in healthcare settings, prompting temporary ward shutdowns and deep cleaning to contain transmission among patients and staff. Details about the hospital's location and the number of affected people have not been confirmed in the available reports.
