New World Screwworm has been confirmed in a calf in South Texas, marking the first U.S. case during the current outbreak.

The good news: the U.S. beef supply remains safe. NWS is an animal health issue, not a food safety issue.

Arkansas producers should stay vigilant, monitor livestock for unusual wounds or signs of infestation, and contact their veterinarian with any concerns.

Most importantly, rely on trusted sources and avoid misinformation. We’ll continue sharing updates as more information becomes available.
