Cyclosporiasis Surge in Louisiana | Baton Rouge News
Description
Louisiana’s seeing a spike in Cyclosporiasis—known for explosive diarrhea—with 100 confirmed cases and six hospitalizations as of July 29, led by East Baton Rouge Parish. While officials note the rise is notable, it’s within expected seasonal trends (May–August). Weekly updates are coming, next on Aug 5. If you’re sick with diarrhea, nausea, or fatigue, see your doctor—and be ready to discuss recent food intake. CDC tips: wash hands before/after handling produce, rinse all fruits/veggies under running water—even if labeled “pre-washed.” Scrub firm produce like melons with a brush, trim damaged parts, and refrigerate cut/prepped items within two hours.
