Mexico Reports Second Screwworm Case Amidst Spreading Outbreak

Mexico reported a second screwworm case in two days, with a cow calf in Tamaulipas testing positive. This brings the total cases since November 2024 to 13,106, with 671 currently active, primarily in southern states. The parasitic fly outbreak, spreading from Central America, has led the U.S. to restrict Mexican livestock imports since May, fearing significant economic damage.
