The number of packages sold does not reflect the number of patients treated, making it impossible to distinguish between increases due to a rise in patients or a rise in prescriptions per patient (e.g., prescriptions for the whole family or repeat treatments). We assume that the changes observed are more indicative of an increase in scabies than in other ectoparasitic infections, as the latter are much less common in Spain. This “large-scale national outbreak” has been attributed to COVID-19 lockdown measures and possible resistance to conventional treatments.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0150"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">14,15</span></a></p><p id="par0075" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Google searches for terms related to scabies have also shown a rising trend since 2004, with a notable increase observed since the end of 2012.

Many factors can drive public interest in a topic, including media coverage, commercial or advertising interests, novelty, and topics with a temporary or periodic nature.</p><p id="par0080" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Our data for Spain show that monthly ectoparasiticide sales were strongly and positively correlated with Google searches for scabies during the same period.</p><p id="par0085" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Sales and internet search volumes were also higher in winter than summer months, although the difference did not reach statistical significance.
