The parasite, known for causing persistent watery diarrhea, has no known source yet, though similar cases are popping up in 28 other states. While not deadly, the illness can linger for weeks and is treatable with antibiotics. Experts warn that past outbreaks often tied to contaminated produce, and with Michigan’s aggressive reporting, the outbreak may appear more severe than elsewhere. To stay safe, wash all fresh produce thoroughly, avoid pre-washed salads, remove outer lettuce leaves, and cook veggies when possible.
