AGP Executive Report

Last update: 23 minutes ago

Tick Season Watch: Florida health officials are urging extra caution as the 2026 tick season ramps up, with CDC reporting ER visits for tick bites at the highest levels since 2017 and UF noting ticks can transmit disease year-round. Rabies Alert: A 60-day rabies warning is active in parts of Marion County after a rabid raccoon was found near Ocala, with residents told to avoid wild animals and keep pets vaccinated. Food Safety: Straus Family Creamery issued a voluntary recall of select ice cream flavors in 17 states, including Florida, over possible metal contamination; locally, a Lady Lake cafe received a “stop sale” order after inspectors found outdated ready-to-eat foods. Restaurant Shutdowns: South Florida inspectors ordered multiple eateries shut for roaches, flies, and sanitation failures before allowing re-openings after cleanup. Weather: Forecasters say a “super El Niño” could intensify this summer, bringing hotter, more humid conditions and shifting hurricane risk. New Tech: UWF professor James Arruda received a U.S. patent step toward earlier, non-invasive Alzheimer’s detection using EEG.
