Cyclosporiasis Outbreak Linked to Lettuce | Green Bay News

A major cyclosporiasis outbreak is sweeping across 17 states, sickening over 9,400 people and hospitalizing nearly 400—causing debilitating diarrhea for weeks. Iceberg lettuce imported from Mexico is the prime suspect, with a recall already in place, though officials warn it may not be the only source. Underreporting could mean even more cases are unaccounted for, especially in states like Michigan. Stay safe by washing hands before and after handling raw veggies, scrubbing produce under running water, and cooking food to 158°F—freezing alone isn’t enough. Health authorities are still monitoring the situation as it evolves. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
