Summary
Michigan’s cyclosporiasis outbreak is exploding—with over 2,600 people sick, far beyond the usual 40-50 annual cases. Health officials are zeroing in on lettuce and salad greens, though no single product or farm has been confirmed. The parasite causes severe watery diarrhea and stomach cramps, and while past outbreaks tied it to bagged salads, cilantro, raspberries, and more, this one’s still being traced through complex supply chains. Symptoms can take days to appear, slowing the investigation. Experts urge people to avoid pre-washed greens, wash whole heads thoroughly, or better yet—cook them to 158°F. Those with weakened immune systems or persistent diarrhea should ask their doctor for a specific cyclospora test, as it’s treatable with antibiotics, rest, and fluids.
