    "Cyclosporiasis is caused by eating food or drinking water contaminated by feces containing the parasite. Historically, people would acquire it outside the United States.

    However, of the 190 cases reported to public health authorities between the start of May and the middle of June, 145 involve someone who hasn’t traveled beyond US borders in the last couple of weeks."

      Does this have anything to do with how we deregulated all the food production and gutted the FDA and replaced everyone there with lobbiests from the companies that produce food? Or something like that?

    Huh… I thought that was just people setting off fireworks early.

    Edit: So immediately after posting this comment, I got a text from my apartment management about not setting off fireworks in the complex. Spooky.
