Episode Details

North Carolina’s grappling with a summer spike in Cyclospora cases—307 reported, 13 hospitalized—with no single food source pinned down yet. Officials stress this outbreak is local, not linked to other states, and update numbers every Tuesday. Investigators dig deep into people’s produce-buying habits, asking for receipts and timelines to spot patterns. While fresh herbs and veggies like cilantro are often tied to Cyclospora, it’s not person-to-person spread—so handwashing is key, especially after bathroom use or handling food. Stay safe: wash produce, wash hands, and keep an eye on updates as officials team up with federal partners to solve this.
