新墨西哥州：新世界螺旋蝇确诊病例升至41例 新墨西哥州立大学发布免费识别指南
美国新墨西哥州立大学合作推广服务站发布了一份免费的新世界螺旋蝇识别指南，帮助农民与居民识别这种寄生蝇及其对牲畜、野生动物与宠物的危害。
目前新墨西哥州已确认41例螺旋蝇病例，分布在卡特伦、唐娜安娜、格兰特、伊达尔戈、卢纳、奥特罗、埃迪与谢拉八个县，全美病例已升至121例。
新世界螺旋蝇的幼虫会钻入温血动物的活体组织，可在两周内致死，近期温暖潮湿的秋季天气助长了蝇群繁殖。新墨西哥州畜牧委员会已在唐娜安娜县确诊病例后设立牲畜检查与运输要求，防止疫情扩散。
推广服务站11月12日晚6时在德明市西南新墨西哥州博览会场举办了说明会，讲解感染征兆与防范措施。居民可在 ScrewwormNM.org 网站查询最新疫情并上报疑似病例。（来源：新墨西哥州立大学）
New Mexico: Confirmed New World Screwworm Cases Rise to 41 as New Mexico State University Releases Free Identification Guide
New Mexico State University's Cooperative Extension Service has released a free New World screwworm identification guide to help farmers and residents recognize the parasitic fly and the danger it poses to livestock, wildlife and pets.
New Mexico has now confirmed 41 screwworm cases, spread across eight counties: Catron, Doña Ana, Grant, Hidalgo, Luna, Otero, Eddy and Sierra. Nationwide, reported cases have climbed to 121.
The larvae of the New World screwworm burrow into the living tissue of warm-blooded animals and can kill within two weeks, and the recent warm, wet fall weather has helped the flies multiply. After cases were confirmed in Doña Ana County, the New Mexico Livestock Board set livestock inspection and movement requirements to prevent the outbreak from spreading.
The Extension Service held an information session at 6 p.m. on November 12 at the Southwestern New Mexico State Fairgrounds in Deming, explaining signs of infestation and prevention measures. Residents can check the latest case information and report suspected cases at ScrewwormNM.org. (Source: New Mexico State University)
