Cyclospora Outbreak Linked to NH Cafeteria | Burlington News
Description
Nine people in New Hampshire are sick from a cyclospora outbreak tied to lettuce at the Cheshire Medical Center cafeteria — part of a massive nationwide outbreak now affecting over 4,000 people across 41 states, with more than 300 hospitalized. The hospital has recalled the specific lettuce and shut down its salad bar after identifying 16 exposed individuals, including 10 staff. Health officials urge anyone who ate lettuce at the cafeteria since early June and has diarrhea to get tested and report suspected cases. While the lettuce didn’t reach grocery stores, it may have gone to other restaurants and cafeterias — so if you’ve eaten out recently, stay alert. If you think you’re affected, call the Division of Public Health at 603-271-4496.
