Cyclosporiasis Outbreak on the Rise | St. Louis News

Cyclosporiasis, a sneaky parasitic infection causing watery diarrhea and stomach woes, is surging across the U.S.—with Missouri reporting just 43 cases so far, while Michigan’s tally hits over 3,700. Spread through human waste, its source remains unknown, though leafy greens have been tied to past outbreaks. Symptoms are mostly digestive—diarrhea, nausea, dehydration—with fever and vomiting rare. Most recover without treatment, but antibiotics help if needed. Cases are expected to rise since many go undiagnosed. CDC confirms no deaths. Stay safe: wash produce, trim bad spots, chill cuts, and cook veggies to kill the parasite. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
