Cyclosporiasis Outbreak Linked to Lettuce | Raleigh News
Description
A deadly lettuce outbreak is spreading across 15 states, linked to Taylor Farms’ iceberg lettuce from central Mexico — with over 6,300 confirmed cases and two deaths reported. Health officials warn the true toll could be higher as it takes up to six weeks to confirm infections. Taco Bell has pulled the affected lettuce from its menus, and consumers are urged to discard or return any they have. Meanwhile, the CDC investigates unrelated cyclosporiasis cases nationwide, where more than 10,400 lab-confirmed cases and over 500 hospitalizations have been reported — with thousands more suspected but unconfirmed.
