Source Found, Cyclospora Outbreak Put Under Control, FDA Probes Continue

HHS Secretary RFK Jr. says investigators have identified the source of the multistate cyclospora outbreak and issued recalls, declaring the situation 'under control' as the FDA continues its probe. The initial Taylor Farms lettuce positive test was later deemed a false positive, with Taylor Fresh Foods recalling iceberg lettuce from central Mexico linked to Taco Bell locations. About 1,644 people have fallen ill and 94 have been hospitalized across Indiana, Kentucky, Michigan, Ohio and West Virginia. Officials say forensics will continue nationwide and defend ongoing FoodNet surveillance cuts as redundant.
