Answer
A
Both are viral infections.
B
Both are bacterial infections.
C
Both are treated with scabicides.
D
Both can be prevented with vaccines.

Explanation

Shingles is caused by the varicella-zoster virus, and human papillomavirus (HPV) is also a virus, so both are viral infections. Vaccines can help prevent both: the shingles vaccine reduces the risk of shingles, and HPV vaccines protect against many HPV infections. Scabicides treat scabies, not these viral infections, and neither condition is bacterial.
