We’re rounding out our group of 30 members across urban, rural, small animal, large animal, equine, specialty, wildlife, and public health practice, and there’s still time to join.

New World Screwworm

Cost included in membership; $140 for nonmembers • CE Credits: 1.2 scientific

The New World screwworm has been detected in U.S. livestock, prompting increased surveillance and response efforts nationwide. Wisconsin is a low-risk state for propagation of the fly, and this is not a food safety issue. However, we could see cases in our state due to animal movement. So veterinarians across all practice types should understand what this development means.
