Published 2 weeks, 5 days ago
Description

Over 7,600 confirmed cases of cyclosporiasis in Michigan are sending shockwaves through public health — with cases surging in just days. Lettuce and salad greens are the prime suspects, though no specific source has been identified yet. With 160 hospitalizations already reported, experts warn this resilient parasite survives regular washing. Stay safe: buy whole heads, discard outer leaves, wash inner leaves thoroughly, or cook greens to at least 158°F.
