Cyclospora outbreak leads to lettuce recall

Thousands sickened in cyclospora recall linked to lettuce

What to do

• Do not eat the recalled lettuce.
• Throw it away or return it to the store.
• Do not try to make it safe by washing it; rinsing may not remove Cyclospora.
• Wash and sanitize refrigerator drawers, containers, cutting boards and other surfaces that touched the lettuce.
• Contact a healthcare provider if watery diarrhea, stomach cramps, nausea, unusual fatigue or other symptoms develop within two weeks of eating the product.

The FDA later determined that one reported positive lettuce sample was a false positive, but the recall remains in effect because epidemiological and supply-chain evidence continues to link Taylor Farms lettuce to a major portion of the outbreak, according to Food Safety News.
