A diarrhea-causing parasite known as cyclospora has been reported in several states, with cases noted in states including Virginia, Louisiana, Ohio, and Michigan. The parasite, which can cause intestinal issues, is being described as a foodborne illness outbreak that is not typical. The number of cases in at least one state, Michigan, has reportedly topped 1,200, while other states are also affected, though the overall scope of the outbreak is not entirely clear.
