SUMMARY:Webinar: Tick Bites\, Meat Allergy\, and Caring for Livestock: What Farmers and Ranchers Need to Know
DESCRIPTION:Summary: Alpha-gal syndrome (AGS)  is an emerging tick-borne allergy to alpha-gal\, a sugar found in mammals and products derived from them. These products include food\, drugs\, personal care and other products. Up to half a million Americans are estimated to be affected by AGS; most live in high-prevalence states in the South\, Midwest\, and East Coast. \nFarmers are at higher risk of tick bites and developing AGS. For farmers\, AGS is not just a food allergy\, it’s an occupational allergy. Reactions fluids\, waste\, and dander from livestock can make caring for them difficult. In this seminar\, we will provide an introduction to AGS\, share tips on avoiding it\, and hear from farmers and ranchers about the challenges of farming with AGS and how to manage them. \nObjectives: At the end of this webinar\, participants will understand… \n\nThe basics of alpha-gal syndrome\nWhen and how to seek a diagnosis\nHow farmers cope with AGS\nNext-level tick bite avoidance tips\n\nIntended Audience: Farmers and ranchers\, hunters\, park rangers\, foresters\, surveyors\, line workers\, gardeners\, hikers\, and other people with outdoor jobs and hobbies. \nMeet the Presenters: \n–Sharon Forsyth\, Executive Director\, Alpha-gal Alliance \n–Candice Matthis\, Co-founder\, Alpha-gal Foundation \n–Debbie Nichols\, Co-founder\, Alpha-gal Foundation \n  \n Register  \n  \nTo register for this training\, you must have a free account in the AgriSafe Learning Lab.

SUMMARY:Webinar: New World Screwworm - Information for Healthcare Providers
DESCRIPTION:Summary: This session will review the clinical features\, specimen handling\, epidemiologic clues\, and reporting steps for New World screwworm myiasis so clinicians can recognize when to consider this rare but serious parasitic infestation\, emphasizing that common wound etiologies remain far more likely and that screwworm should be a low-probability diagnosis except when compatible wounds\, visible larvae\, and recent travel/exposure to endemic areas are present. \nObjectives: At the end of this presentation\, participants will be able to… \n Recognize key signs of New World screwworm myiasis and when to suspect it. \n Manage initial bedside care: remove larvae\, care for the wound\, and preserve specimens. \n Report suspected cases and communicate relevant travel or animal-exposure history to appropriate officials \nIntended Audience: Healthcare professionals\, community health workers\, and anyone interested in learning more about the topic \nMeet the Presenter: Andrew Hennenfent\, DVM\, MPH\, DACVPM\, State Public Health Veterinarian\, Iowa Department of Health and Human Services \nTo register for this training\, you must have a free account in the AgriSafe Learning Lab.
