CDC Links Cyclosporiasis Outbreak to Mexican Iceberg Lettuce Supply

The CDC has confirmed 6,707 laboratory-confirmed cases of cyclosporiasis across the U.S., with Michigan reporting over 11,200 cases and two deaths.
The outbreak has been traced to iceberg lettuce supplied by Taylor Farms in Mexico, prompting Sysco to stop purchasing from this source.
Investigations are ongoing to determine if other suppliers are involved, as major retailers begin avoiding produce from central Mexico.
