CDC, FDA, and public health officials in several states are investigating a multistate outbreak of Cyclospora infections linked to iceberg lettuce in 9 states. If you have recalled lettuce in your home, throw it out or return it.
When people got sick
This chart shows when 1,947 people in this multistate Cyclospora outbreak got sick.
Recent illnesses may not yet be reported because it can take as long as 6 weeks to determine if a sick person is part of a Cyclospora outbreak.
The true number of sick people in this outbreak is also likely much higher than the number reported. This is because many people recover without medical care and are not tested for Cyclospora.
