Wednesday s Afternoon Update

Wednesday s Afternoon Update | 2/10/2021 Will a more contagious virus reverse Florida’s recent downturn in COVID cases? Even with two vaccines and COVID cases waning from a winter peak, Florida’s pandemic future has been obscured in recent weeks by the rapid spread of a new and more contagious variant of the virus. The state has become ground zero in the U.S. for the B.1.1.7 variant of the COVID virus, or the ‘”U.K. variant” one of several spin-offs that have raised alarm in the scientific community. The more infectious version of the virus, scientists worry, could accelerate severe disease and deaths before public health officials get enough people vaccinated. More from the Miami Herald and WFIT.

New invasive mosquito species found in Miami-Dade, Broward counties

Researchers say it has also turned up in Broward County. “The reporting of the Aedes scapularis can be of great medical and veterinary importance, as these mosquitoes are vectors of disease such as yellow fever, Venezuelan equine encephalitis and dog heartworm,” Research Director Chalmers Vasquez said in a statement. “This also highlights the importance of South Florida as the point of entry of invasive species that might eventually lead to outbreaks of mosquito-transmitted diseases in our population.” The Aedes scapularis mosquito was previously only known in Florida from three specimens collected in the Florida Keys in 1945. Experts say it is found in much of tropical America, from central South America to northern Mexico and extreme southern Texas, as well as a few Caribbean islands.

scientist sound the alarm insects vulnerable to extinction,

Entomologist Akito Kawahara says, We can’t live without insects. They’re in trouble. And there’s something all of us can do to help. Kawahara’s research has primarily focused on answering fundamental questions about moth and butterfly evolution, according to a news release from the Florida Museum of Natural History. Kawahara is increasingly haunted by studies that sound the alarm about plummeting insect numbers and diversity. While scientists differ on the severity of the problem, many findings point to a general downward trend, with one study estimating 40% of insect species are vulnerable to extinction. In response, Kawahara has turned his attention to boosting people’s appreciation for some of the world’s most misunderstood animals.
