Summary
The CDC has declared the largest cyclosporiasis outbreak in U.S. history officially over, with over 12,000 cases, nearly 600 hospitalizations, and two deaths—all traced to contaminated iceberg lettuce from Taylor Farms. The tainted produce is now off shelves and in restaurants, leading to a sharp drop in new cases. Cyclosporiasis, spread through fecal contamination in raw produce, hit hardest in Michigan, Ohio, and Missouri. Officials confirm no current risk, as all affected products have expired. This outbreak alone accounted for more than half of all reported cases this year, setting a grim record. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
