Anne Frank contracted scabies at Auschwitz so she was sent to Bergen-Belsen-UK Independent

.
5/5/1995, "Anne Frank: after the diary stopped," UK Independent, Angela Lambert 

"Bloeme Evers-Emden recalls: "The last time I saw Anne and Margot and Mrs Frank was when there had been a selection for a working camp. Anne was not allowed to go with our group because she had scabies. Her mother and Margot decided to stay with her. Had they gone with our transport, they had a better chance to survive."

It was only because Anne developed scabies in Auschwitz-Birkenau that she was sent to disease-ridden Bergen-Belsen. Apart from that, in late 1944 she was still relatively strong and healthy, thanks to the food that Miep and her husband had risked their lives to supply them in hiding. Had she been sent to a labour camp, Anne might well have lived."...(parags. 9 and 10)
