Michigan reports first U.S. deaths tied to a deadly cyclospora outbreak, with two victims likely more vulnerable due to pre-existing health conditions. The parasite, often found in contaminated produce irrigated with polluted water, causes severe diarrhea and dehydration. Federal investigators now point to Taco Bell’s Mexican-sourced lettuce as the main culprit, linked to cases across five states. CDC has logged over 4,100 confirmed cases and is investigating more than 7,400 potential ones across 41 states — the highest number ever recorded this year. Authorities are still probing other possible sources as the investigation continues.
