As sharing is meant as a means of collaboration, any member of a shared folder will be able to see any other member. There's no option to disable this.
If you need to share a folder with multiple people without them being able to see the other members, you would need to create a separate shared folder for each person (i.e. multiple copies of the folder, one for each person you intend to share it with).
If they only need view/download access, you can use a view-only shared link. They wouldn't need a Dropbox account and wouldn't be able to see who you've shared the link with.

Hi webatbcp_on_db, I hope you're doing well!
When you say get rid of the share options, do you mean unsharing the folder itself, or preventing people from seeing info of other collaborators?
Just asking to make sure I provide you with the correct info there.
If you meant something entirely different, let me know.
