New World Screwworm Response: The IAEA and FAO launched a $1 million, five-year effort to stop the New World screwworm from returning across Central America, Mexico, and the southern U.S., using the sterile insect technique (releasing sterilized male flies) as cases expand and Texas remains on alert.
