CDC Declares Largest Recorded Cyclospora Outbreak Over

Health officials declared the largest multistate cyclosporiasis outbreak tied to iceberg lettuce over, with thousands of illnesses across about 20 states, hospitalizations in the hundreds and two deaths, as the recalled lettuce from Mexico was removed from the supply and investigations into the outbreak’s origin continue. TheFDA and CDC said there is no longer a current risk but will pursue further probes into how contamination occurred and which sources remain under review, including broader questions about produce contamination and supply chains.
