Description

Cyclosporiasis cases are on the rise in Columbia and Boone County—with 22 confirmed so far—caused by contaminated fresh produce. While usually mild and self-limiting, it can be serious for kids and immunocompromised folks. Peak season runs May to August. Experts urge thorough washing of all produce, avoid food prep if sick, and cook to 160°F if possible. Travelers should be extra cautious. If symptoms linger, see a doctor—better safe than sorry.
