From Online: Researchers Urge For U.S. Recognition Of Chagas As Endemic

Story by Texas A&M AgriLife

Texas A&M University, the University of Florida, and the Texas Department of State Health Services researchers say the time is now to recognize Chagas disease as endemic in the U.S. The multi-institutional team’s perspective article, published in the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) September volume of Emerging Infectious Diseases, underscores growing evidence that points to endemic transmission.

“The biggest need is awareness, and that is the focus of our publication to share the scientific perspective that Chagas disease is endemic in the U.S.,” said Dr. Gabriel Hamer, of Texas A&M’s Department of Entomology. “Too often, medical and veterinary training programs dismiss Chagas as only a tropical disease and irrelevant to public and animal health in the U.S.

“But kissing bug vectors, the parasite, and locally acquired human cases are here. It is critical for our next generation of doctors and veterinarians to be aware of this vector-borne disease to assist with the diagnosis of humans and animal patients.”

🐈 please be aware…Spanish Oaks apartment residents…I was told property management sent out a warning to stop feeding strays.
Remember, we can’t help with cats, but there are cat rescues that can help.
Reach out to Gulf Coast Humane Society, the Cattery, Casa Verde cat rescue, F.E.R.A.L.S rescue, or PAAC for help. All of these are on Facebook.

There are 6 dogs in Sinton City shelter that need
1) to be owner claimed by calling city hall,
2) fostered in a kind home
3) told they are being euthanized in the near future to free up space.
If you can help us do one of these 3 things, that would be great.
This is our reality. This is what we live in dog rescue. Every day. All year. No days off. 🐾

Another dog got picked up today. Anyone?
The shelter is full.
I need foster homes to volunteer to help a dog or the city will euthanize for space. They have to. 😢
Unfortunately it’s the reality of where we live.
