Cyclosporiasis Surges in Texas | Lubbock News

Published 1 month ago
Description

Cyclosporiasis is surging across the U.S., with Texas reporting 48 confirmed cases as of early July — a sharp uptick from recent years. Caused by a parasite spread through contaminated food or water, it triggers explosive diarrhea, fatigue, cramps, and dehydration. Outbreaks have historically tied to imported produce like cilantro and raspberries, and it doesn’t spread person-to-person. While not deadly, it’s highly uncomfortable. Meanwhile, MedFuture students — the fourth cohort — have begun training at UT El Paso and Texas Tech, aiming to strengthen healthcare in the Borderland.
