Information about New World Screwworm

The Maryland Department of Health, in coordination with the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), Maryland Department of Agriculture, and local and state partners, recently investigated a CDC-confirmed case of travel-associated New World screwworm (NWS) myiasis in a resident of Maryland who had returned from a country currently experiencing a NWS outbreak.

The Maryland resident has recovered from the infection, and the investigation confirmed there is no indication of transmission to any other individuals or animals. Currently, the risk to public and animal health in Maryland from this introduction is very low.

The detection serves as a timely reminder for health care providers, livestock owners and others to maintain vigilance through routine monitoring, as prevention is paramount.

Health care providers in Maryland should report suspected cases immediately to the Maryland Department of Health at 410-767-6700 or their local health department. A clinical overview of NWS myiasis can be found here: HHS CDC.

Livestock owners in Maryland should monitor their animals for any symptoms and immediately report any suspected cases to the Maryland Department of Agriculture at 410-841-5810. A comprehensive list of symptoms and effective prevention strategies can be found here: USDA APHIS.
