On Wednesday, it was reported that there have been more 11,500 cyclosporiasis cases in 41 states. At this point, we’re looking at about 12,000 cases and the largest cyclosporiasis outbreak in US history. The listeria outbreak has, very rudely, been linked to soft cheeses — which is just sad because we need brie at times like these. Just a month ago, there was another listeria outbreak involving soft cheeses, so be careful with your charcuterie boards over the weekend. Because more severe forms of listeria poisoning can often take 1-4 weeks to present symptoms, it can be difficult to find and test sources.
