## Resource

A major cyclosporiasis outbreak is sweeping across the Midwest and eastern U.S., sickening thousands linked to prepackaged salad greens — while Washington remains largely untouched, with only 27 isolated cases tied to international travel. Experts warn washing greens isn’t enough to fully eliminate the parasite, and the CDC continues investigating the exact source. Thanks to our local, regional food supply, Washington’s produce stays relatively safe — a reminder to know your food’s origin and support local farms.
