In the United States, two people died from an intestinal infection called cyclosporosis

The article reports on a significant outbreak of cyclosporiasis in the United States, linked to contaminated lettuce from a Mexican-based company, Taylor Farms, distributed through Taco Bell restaurants. The outbreak has resulted in two deaths, both individuals having pre-existing health conditions that may have contributed to their mortality. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has confirmed over 6,700 cases as of July 28, with additional suspected cases. Michigan is the most affected state, reporting 11,234 confirmed cases and 193 hospitalizations. While the FDA investigation points to Taylor Farms' lettuce as a likely source, authorities are still searching for other potential causes. Sales of the lettuce have dropped, and some restaurant chains have seen reduced customer traffic.
