Cyclospora Outbreak Linked to Lettuce | Irvine News
Description
A microscopic parasite is spreading across 15 states, linked to iceberg lettuce from Taylor Farms grown in central Mexico. Cyclospora causes severe diarrhea and is hard to track due to delayed symptoms and shrinking public health resources. While not as common as salmonella, this outbreak—part of five ongoing FDA investigations—is the largest yet, reminding us that even simple foods can hide serious risks.
