Two new cases of deadly screwworm parasite detected in U.S.


The fly was detected in a calf in La Salle County, Texas, and a dog in New Mexico, the agency said in a Monday release. That comes after two cases were confirmed last week in calves in Zavala County in South Texas, marking the first U.S. detection of the fly in over a decade, and the first in cattle in about five decades.
