Michigan is facing its worst cyclosporiasis outbreak ever, with over 11,000 cases and nearly 200 hospitalizations—two deaths confirmed. The parasite causes debilitating fatigue and dehydration, especially for those with underlying health issues. Shredded lettuce from Taylor Farms, used by Taco Bell, is the prime suspect, despite initial test confusion; the FDA’s investigation strongly points to this source. Taylor Farms recalled some iceberg lettuce from central Mexico, and Taco Bell pulled the suspect ingredients as a precaution. The CDC is also investigating smaller outbreaks elsewhere, but this one—spanning nine states—is now the largest confirmed cyclosporiasis cluster in U.S. history, shaping up to be one of the most severe seasons ever recorded.
