Cyclospora Outbreak Hits 31 States | Washington DC News

A parasite outbreak is sweeping across 31 states, with over 2,300 cases linked to contaminated food or water—not person-to-person. Symptoms include severe diarrhea, weight loss, and lingering illness if untreated. While CDC numbers may be underreported, Michigan alone reports 1,500+ cases and 44 hospitalizations. Past outbreaks tied to bagged salads, cilantro, raspberries, and greens suggest produce may be the culprit again. Health officials are racing to identify the source, but in the meantime, wash produce thoroughly and cook when possible to stay safe.
