AGP Executive Report
Last update: 6 hours agoFood Safety Alert: Federal CDC and FDA investigators say shredded iceberg lettuce from Mexico served at some Taco Bell locations is linked to a fast-growing cyclospora outbreak, warning people not to eat it in Indiana, Kentucky, Michigan, Ohio, and West Virginia; officials report 1,644+ illnesses tied to the five-state cluster, with 94 hospitalizations and no deaths, and say the true total may be higher because many people don’t get tested. Company Response: Taco Bell says it has removed potentially impacted lettuce from its supply chain and is working with regulators to determine whether contaminated product remains on the market. Local Health Watch: West Virginia health partners are also reminding residents to follow guidance during the outbreak and to monitor symptoms like severe watery or “explosive” diarrhea, cramps, nausea, and fatigue. Air Quality Reminder: Separately, the West Virginia Department of Environmental Protection urges residents to watch air quality as Canadian wildfire smoke moves into the state, with guidance to limit outdoor time if conditions worsen.
