SUMMARY:Webinar: Talking About Ticks- Lyme Disease
DESCRIPTION:Summary: As people spend more time outdoors\, so do many insects and pests. Among them are ticks\, which are small bloodsucking insects. The deer tick (also known as the black-legged tick) is found mainly in the Eastern and upper Midwestern regions of the U.S. It can cause conditions such as Lyme disease – the most common vector-borne disease in the United States. This webinar will cover the things you need to know to prevent tick bites when working outdoors\, how to remove a tick if bitten\, as well as the symptoms that can result from tick bites that may indicate Lyme Disease. \nIntended Audience: This course is intended for Ag professionals\, educators\, and individuals involved in working and recreation outdoors. \nObjectives: At the end of this webinar\, participants will be able to: \n\nGain an understanding of tick-borne disease control measures to reduce exposure risks among ag workers.\nDescribe Lyme Disease and its regional variation.\nDescribe symptoms of the different types of Lyme Disease.\nIdentify workers’ rights and employers’ responsibilities for the workplace.\n\n Watch Here  \nThis material was produced under grant number SH-36995-HA1 from the Occupational Safety and Health Administration\, U.S. Department of Labor.

SUMMARY:Webinar: Zoonotic Disease and Pregnancy: A Deeper Dive
DESCRIPTION:Summary: Zoonotic Diseases are transmitted between farm animals and humans and can pose additional risks to those who are pregnant. According to the World Health Organization\, over half of all human pathogens are zoonotic and have represented nearly all emerging pathogens in the past decade. Farmers and farmworkers have a higher risk of contracting zoonotic diseases because of the frequency of their animal exposure. \nPrevention is the best defense. Understanding how the disease transmission process works\, building a team\, and effectively communicating within that team is essential in preventing the spread of zoonotic disease. Women working in agriculture should be aware of the following special considerations during pregnancy: which animals are common carriers of zoonotic disease\, symptoms of the disease(s)\, prevention measures\, and pregnancy risks. \nIntended Audience:  Supervisor or Managers: This training is intended primarily for health and safety professionals\, including but not limited to owner/operators\, safety officers or specialists\, managers\, supervisors\, safety coordinators\, health safety and environmental interns\, and any person or persons who serve as safety personnel in an agricultural setting. \nProducers: This training is intended primarily for agricultural producers\, including but not limited to farmers\, ranchers\, and any person or persons involved in some combination of raising field crops\, orchards\, vineyards\, horticulture\, or other livestock. \nObjectives: At the end of this webinar\, participants will be able to… \n\nDefine zoonotic disease and identify various modes of transmission.\nIdentify a minimum of four significant zoonotic diseases affecting the production agricultural population.\nDiscuss warning signs and symptoms of major zoonotic diseases which have adverse effects on reproductive health.\nLocate at least three recommended educational resources for training an agricultural workforce.\n\nThis material was produced under grant number SH-05068-SH8 from the Occupational Safety and Health Administration\, U.S. Department of Labor.
