Screwworm 101 with Lee Haines, PhD

The New World screwworm has returned to the United States as the first case was reported in Texas on June 3, Since then, a number of additional cases have affected animals in Texas and New Mexico. What is the new world screwworm? How is it transmitted and how dangerous is it? And how will we get it under control? These are just a few of the questions I will pose to my expert guest. Joining me today is Lee Haines, Ph.D. Dr Haines is a medical entomologist and associate professor of Biological Sciences at the University of Notre Dame.
