Infectious Disease Watch: A case of New World screwworm has been detected in a Texas calf, signaling the parasite’s return after decades of control—linked by researchers to illegal cattle smuggling that bypasses health checks and helps the fly spread northward. Public Health & Animal Health: The screwworm fly lays in wounds or body openings of warm-blooded animals, so outbreaks raise urgent concerns for veterinary care, wound management, and cross-border livestock monitoring. Wellness Tech for Biodiversity: TropiCam, an AI tool designed to study tropical forest canopies, aims to better track arboreal species—supporting healthier ecosystems that underpin food and habitat stability. Coastal Resilience: Satellite analysis suggests mangrove forests are expanding again since 2010 after long declines, with benefits for fisheries, storm protection, and carbon storage. Travel Health Access: A UK travel insurance warning highlights the Global Health Insurance Card (GHIC) as a key way to reduce the risk of expensive overseas medical bills.
