Investigators are zeroing in on shredded lettuce from Taylor Farms, specifically iceberg lettuce sourced from central Mexico. The parasite, which thrives in contaminated water and causes explosive diarrhea, has spread to states including Illinois, Kansas, Oklahoma, and Pennsylvania. A twist? Mexican officials tested the Taylor Farms plant and surrounding water—and found nothing. The CDC suspects the true toll is higher and is also tracking a separate, smaller outbreak affecting 72 people, with no confirmed source. This is a fast-moving, complex case with more answers still to come. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
