Cyclospora Outbreaks Surge Across States | Colorado Springs News

Published 1 week, 6 days ago
Description

Cyclospora cases are exploding this year—with nearly 14,000 reported since May, up from just 1,000 last year. Over 9,000 of those are linked to iceberg lettuce, now tied to 17 states, including new ones like Maine and Massachusetts. Meanwhile, the FDA is tracking seven other outbreaks with no clear source, two of which have grown dramatically—one hitting 11 cases, another soaring to 172. Experts warn actual infections are likely higher, as symptoms can linger for weeks and not everyone gets tested. If you’ve got diarrhea lasting more than a week or two, see a doctor.
