Kennedy Jr. stated that the U.S. cyclosporiasis outbreak is under control, with the source identified and a recall implemented, despite rising case numbers. More than 10,000 cases of cyclosporiasis have been reported across over 40 states, with Michigan accounting for the highest number of infections at 6,571. The Food and Drug Administration clarified that a “false positive” lab result for Taylor Farms lettuce does not alter the basis for their ongoing investigation or the voluntary recall.
