FDA closes cyclospora lettuce probe, links outbreak to Taylor Farms Mexico

Original: US FDA closes cyclospora lettuce parasite probe, finds strong link to Taylor Farms Mexico

The US Food and Drug Administration has closed its investigation into a cyclospora parasite outbreak linked to lettuce, concluding there is a strong association with product from Taylor Farms Mexico. The probe traced the intestinal illness cases to romaine lettuce supplied from Mexican operations. The closure ends the investigation, but the findings raise fresh questions about food safety oversight across the fresh produce supply chain.

Why now: Foodborne illness outbreaks and their supply chain origins are of immediate public health and consumer interest
