Paul Strauss, Public Health Educator for the Hawaii State department of Health, will discuss the current status of Rat Lungworm Disease.  Several cases of the disease confirmed on Maui and the Big Island have heightened awareness of the disease in recent months.  The Department of Health has developed a community presentation to give residents a current understanding of the disease, its scope on the Big Island and methods of limiting risks.
