FMD control is deemed inadequate, despite South American outbreaks and the Darién Gap's barrier history. Officials urge safeguards before road completion to protect US herds and trade. The last US FMD case was 1928, with a major outbreak in 195? affecting 22 states.

Canning Lids Flood Market Warns on Selection
Washington officials warn consumers to choose canning lids carefully as a flood of new lids from major manufacturers hits the market. With no agency taking full responsibility due to jurisdiction disputes, complaints of faulty seals and spoiled food prompt the FDA and Agriculture Department to urge the Consumer Product Safety Commission to act. The FDA says it is troubled by the situation and believes the safety commission could exercise jurisdiction to address containers that fail to seal properly.
