Summary
Cyclosporiasis is spreading across the U.S., including Tennessee, with 145 confirmed cases nationwide—20 hospitalized—though no single source has been identified. Caused by a parasite, it leads to severe watery diarrhea and explosive bowel movements that can last weeks and even recur. You catch it by consuming contaminated food or water, with symptoms appearing 2–2 weeks later. Not contagious person-to-person, most cases are domestically acquired. Treatable with antibiotics if caught early. Tennessee likely has 1–10 cases, but actual numbers may be higher since many cases go unreported. Stay safe: wash hands, be cautious with food and water, and see a doctor if symptoms persist.
