Canada has banned imports of Texas beef in light of the screwworm cases there. Has any American state also banned sales of Texas beef so as to contain the risk?

1/ Five cases of New World screwworm have now been confirmed in the U.S., Texas has declared an emergency, and Canada immediately restricted livestock imports. Most people had never heard of screwworm until last week (or maybe just now). That's because we eradicated it from the U.S. in 1966.🧵
