ALT Woman looking through a microscope in a lab. Text overlay: DNA analysis ties ten locally acquired malaria cases to four distinct sources.
ALT A sick patient in a hospital bed.
ALT Image depicts a public health scientist analyzing whole genome sequencing data on a sequencing instrument. WGS provides detailed genetic information about pathogens that make people sick.
ALT Three public health scientists set up samples on sequencing instruments “building capacity” and “advanced molecular detection.”
ALT Overhead view of a farm, showing an airplane spraying fungicide. The text reads: Azole fungicides are used to protect crops from fungi. Azole fungicides kill most A. fumigatus, but resistant A. fumigatus spores can survive and multiply in the environment.
ALT The cycle of how sporotrichosis spreads to people from the environment (through cuts from branches, brush, and through soil) and animals, mostly cats (through scratches or bites).
ALT An image of sprouted beans. Text overlay states: “Food Safety Alert Update. Salmonella outbreak linked to Deep brand frozen foods. Additional Deep-branded frozen food products have been recalled, including sprouted mat (moth) & moong (mung) beans, surti undhiu mix, & fruits & vegetables. Cdc.gov/foodborne-outbreaks”
