Anja Raudabaugh is joined by Dr. Michael Payne to discuss the re-emerging threat of the New World screwworm, a dangerous pest spreading northward through Mexico that prompted U.S. import suspensions. Dr. Payne breaks down how screwworms infest warm-blooded animals, the telltale signs of infection, and the historic success of the sterile fly eradication program—plus what’s being done now to control the resurgence. The episode also includes an update on Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI), with promising news on herd recovery and ongoing research into potential transmission pathways.
