The first objective is therefore to identify by a closed questionnaire the practices and help given to homeless people for taking care of their hygiene. The second objective is to estimate the prevalence of scabies and pediculosis through an individual dermatological examination; to estimate the seroprevalence of Bartonella quintana infection; the risk factors for these different diseases will also be identified. The prevalence of fungal and bacterial infections on the feet will also be measured. The third objective is to identify practices to prevent the transmission of these ectoparasitoses in the reception and accommodation centres and their treatment conditions. null France Ile-de-France Individuals General population Male Female Young Adult (19 to 24 years) Adult (25 to 44 years) Middle Aged (45 to 64 years) Aged (65 to 79 years) Aged, 80 and over (80 years and more) Respondents are homeless people receiving assistance services and those housed in outdoor camp sites (woods, parks, peripheral embankments, etc.).
