Cyclospora Outbreak Traces to Taylor Farms | US News
Description
Federal health officials are still focusing on Taylor Farms lettuce as the likely source of a major cyclospora outbreak causing severe digestive illness nationwide. Though a lab initially reported a false positive on a non-recalled sample, the FDA quickly corrected the record. The parasite, often from contaminated water, has sickened thousands, and authorities are ramping up testing of incoming produce. The scare has hit restaurants hard—Taco Bell saw a sharp drop in customers. The investigation continues as officials work to prevent more contaminated food from reaching shelves.
