Federal health officials are racing to contain a new cyclospora outbreak, with the FDA tracing contaminated food but no confirmed source yet. This isn’t the first outbreak this year—iceberg lettuce from central Mexico caused thousands of illnesses and a major recall. Cyclospora, a microscopic parasite, causes severe diarrhea and other stomach issues, and while cooking kills it, washing won’t help. Over 1,600 cases are confirmed since May, with hundreds hospitalized, though state reports suggest the real number could be in the thousands—many cases go unreported. The investigation is ongoing, and updates will follow as more info emerges.
