Cyclospora Outbreak Surges in Ohio | Toledo News

A nationwide cyclospora outbreak has sickened thousands, with Ohio cases tripling to over 1,100 confirmed infections. Health officials point to Taylor Farms lettuce as the likely source, prompting Taco Bell to remove affected ingredients and the FDA to issue a nationwide recall. Though symptoms include explosive diarrhea, the illness is rarely life-threatening and treatable with antibiotics. The outbreak, now considered under control, aligns with peak cyclosporiasis season—May through August—and experts urge thorough produce washing to prevent infection.
