New York’s Cyclospora Outbreak Expands as NY Nears 400 Cases

Health officials say a cyclosporiasis outbreak has sickened hundreds nationwide, with nearly 400 cases in New York since May. Most infections have been reported in New York City, while Michigan and Ohio have the highest totals overall. The New York State Department of Health, in coordination with the CDC and FDA, is trying to identify exposure sources and asks confirmed cases to list foods purchased. Most people recover on their own, but dehydration or prolonged symptoms require medical care; no Rochester-area cases have been confirmed yet.

DSA surges in NY and Colorado primaries, teeing up a 2028 bid

DSA-backed candidates pulled off major primary wins in New York and Colorado, boosting the movement’s profile as mayor Zohran Mamdani’s endorsements boost its reach. In a wide-ranging discussion, DSA co-chair Megan Romer explains the group’s push for a long-term, populist economic agenda (universal childcare, Medicare for All, debt relief) while addressing criticisms over borders and policing, vetting of anti-establishment candidates, and Israel/Palestine policy. The interview also revisits the AOC endorsement controversy and signals possible 2028 presidential ambitions to keep DSA’s voice in national debates.

Foot bite at Jones Beach triggers shark-safety response

A swimmer at Jones Beach State Park in New York was bitten on the foot in a suspected shark attack, with lifeguards responding and the victim taken to a hospital for non-life-threatening injuries. The beach was briefly closed during an hour-long shark search before swimming was allowed again with restrictions to waist-deep water. Officials reported other shark sightings nearby at Rockaway Beach and Point Lookout on Long Island amid record heat; drones are increasingly used to monitor sharks. Shark bites are rare, with about 60–80 unprovoked bites worldwide each year.
