Taco Bell Lettuce From Taylor Farms Investigated as Source of Cyclosporiasis Outbreak Sickening 1,645

Federal health officials are investigating shredded iceberg lettuce from Taylor Farms supplied to Taco Bell as a possible source of a multistate cyclosporiasis outbreak. The CDC has confirmed 1,645 cases and 145 hospitalizations across Michigan, Ohio, West Virginia, and Kentucky. A 5,100-case analytical backlog remains. Taco Bell has removed the implicated lettuce nationwide. No recall has been issued, and the CDC still lists the source as "unknown."
