- Heads-up for summer: Cyclospora infections are rising across multiple states (notably spikes in Michigan and New York), and cases often increase in warm months.
- Common culprits are raw produce—think herbs (cilantro, basil) and fresh berries—so thoroughly wash fruits, veggies and hands (bleach wipes won’t kill the parasite).
- Infection causes prolonged watery diarrhea, appetite loss and low fever; stay hydrated and see a doctor if symptoms are severe.
