Cyclospora Outbreak: Pools or Produce | Phoenix News

Don’t panic about pool water—health officials say cyclospora isn’t spreading through swimming pools, despite the rumors. The real culprit? Fresh produce, especially lettuce and salad greens. While swallowing contaminated water can technically transmit the parasite, it’s rare. Symptoms include brutal diarrhea that can last up to a month, so those with weakened immune systems or young kids need to be extra careful. Stay safe by washing your hands and cleaning produce thoroughly—your gut will thank you. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
