Stomach Bug Spreads To 15 States
Comstock/Thinkstock(ATLANTA) — A parasite has sickened another 36 people, bringing the outbreak total to 315 patients in 15 states as of Thursday night, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. At least 18 people have been hospitalized with the stomach bug, the agency said.
Cyclospora, the one-celled parasite that causes diarrhea, stomach cramps and other symptoms normally associated with a viral stomach bug, is common in tropical regions like Latin America, but isn’t typically seen in the United States, according to the CDC. Most of the people affected were in Iowa, Nebraska and Texas. New Jersey, Minnesota and Ohio are the latest states to report cyclospora cases.
“CDC really has their hands full with this one,” said Dr. Richard Besser, chief health medical correspondent for ABC News. “It’s hard to pick up so there’s probably a lot more of this disease out there.”
Because the illness doesn’t spread from person to person, it’s possible it came from contaminated food or water, said Dr. Nicole Bouvier, an infectious diseases professor at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai in New York City. It’s curable.
