Cyclosporiasis Outbreak Linked to Lettuce | Global News

A nationwide cyclosporiasis outbreak is hitting over 40 states, with more than 11,000 cases since mid-May — mostly linked to contaminated iceberg lettuce from central Mexico. Michigan leads with over 8,100 infections, and victims describe excruciating symptoms. The CDC warned about Taylor Farms lettuce, which triggered a voluntary recall on July 17, though earlier FDA test results were later corrected as false positives. Tracing the parasite is tough since symptoms can appear weeks after exposure, turning this into a slow, complex investigation that could take months to fully resolve.
