@bich I suspect, complacency. So many programs occupy the attention of policy-makers, until they don't. I am reminded of the Smallpox scare...only three of us at my health department had been previously vaccinated. Only I had ever provided the vaccination to others....Other projects gain the current "crisis" appeal without the understanding of risk....In this case, international cooperation. I agree that climate could be a factor, it certainly has been with other vectors. As an example: there are aedes aegypti over-wintering in in the DC tunnels...
@bich Agreed. Like a few things; only my contemporaries have seen this in practice...dog wounds, occasional human....I hope USAG will get a handle on it quickly....

@jacobyaudio Back when the fear of smallpox and anthrax was driving the budget. The nurse manager suggested that I stay in my lane...on my third day...I told her that I did not have any lanes. She appreciated that later when I would ask if she needed anything when those fat annual budgets were available....
