Cyclosporiasis Outbreak Hits Mainland | Honolulu News

A nasty stomach bug called cyclosporiasis is causing explosive diarrhea across 31 U.S. states, with 843 confirmed cases and 1,500 more under investigation—no deaths yet, but 86 hospitalized. The parasite, spread through contaminated food or water, is suspected to be linked to raw produce like leafy greens, herbs, and berries. While Michigan leads in cases, Hawaii remains unaffected this year, with just seven total cases in the past decade. Health officials urge everyone to wash produce thoroughly or cook it to stay safe.
