Episode Details

UK Health Security Agency warns of a surge in cyclospora infections linked to travelers from Mexico—especially as summer vacations begin. This parasite, not native to the UK, causes explosive diarrhea, stomach cramps, and fatigue, typically from contaminated food or water like unwashed herbs or soft fruits. It doesn’t spread person-to-person, so stick to bottled water, cook food thoroughly, and only eat peelable fruits. Stay hydrated if you get it—most recover in days, but those with weakened immune systems may need antibiotics. Take simple precautions before your trip to avoid this unwelcome vacation souvenir.
