Mississippi Reports 7 Cyclosporiasis Cases | Hattiesburg News

Mississippi reports seven cyclosporiasis cases as of July 22, spread across Districts 3, 5, 8, and 9 — but officials reassure the public this isn’t linked to the nationwide outbreak and is easily treatable. The parasite, often from contaminated produce like berries or lettuce, causes severe diarrhea and cramps, peaking seasonally from May to August. Doctors are urged to test stool samples specifically, and anyone with diarrhea lasting more than a couple days should see a doctor.
