Annotation	The purpose of the work is to highlight the current problem of the incidence of the 
Ukrainian population with such a type of fungal infection as scab, to analyze its 
specific features and clinical picture of the course, and to study archival data on the 
incidence of scab in Ukraine over 130 years. At the current stage, in the conditions of 
conducting active military operations, the need for timely medical care for patients
 with scab and related complications is substantiated. Dermatologists and infectious
 disease specialists should pay more attention to the prevention of fungal diseases,
 including scab, with the further use of modern, adequate sanitary and hygienic 
measures
