Crypto-linked four cases prompt SD County pool investigation at Gaylord Pacific

San Diego County public health officials are investigating four cases of cryptosporidiosis tied to the Gaylord Pacific Resort pools, with exposures reported between July 24 and Aug. 15. Crypto can survive in well-maintained pool water and is resistant to chlorine, spreading via oocysts; symptoms include watery diarrhea 2–10 days after exposure, and people can shed the parasite even after symptoms resolve. Health officials advise thorough handwashing with soap and water and careful, hydrogen-peroxide-based disinfection, noting the illness is typically mild for healthy individuals but more serious for immunocompromised swimmers.

LA County Braces for Severe El Niño and Flood Risk

LA County emergency officials say they’re preparing for a potentially historic El Niño this winter, with forecasters predicting a strong event and elevated flood risk from heavy rains, coastal tides, and the moon’s declination. Inland areas near creeks and burn-scarred hillsides face mudslides and flash flooding, while officials inspect flood-control infrastructure and plan an El Niño response drill on Sept. 13. Residents are urged to buy flood insurance, fix roofs, and ensure drains are working. While El Niño doesn’t guarantee a deluge, warming seas and climate-change effects are increasing the risk.
