Cyclospora and Salmonella Outbreaks | Albuquerque News

This summer’s food supply is under siege—over 20,000 suspected cyclospora cases nationwide, two deaths in Michigan (though other health issues were involved), plus major salmonella outbreaks tied to recalled eggs and jalapeños at popular restaurants. While both bugs cause nasty diarrhea, stomach cramps, and nausea, they’re different: cyclospora hides in produce like lettuce and doesn’t spread person-to-person, while salmonella lurks in eggs, poultry, flour, and more—and can strike faster. Cyclospora’s diarrhea? Often explosive, and symptoms may take up to two weeks to show. If you’ve got severe diarrhea lasting over two days, bloody stool, or a high fever? See a doctor. Stay hydrated, wash your hands, and stay safe—your gut will thank you. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
