FDA Official Asserts U.S. Food Supply Safe as Cyclosporiasis Cases Reach 11,000
A Food and Drug Administration (FDA) official, acting deputy commissioner for food Donald Prater, stated that the U.S. food supply is safe despite a surge in cyclosporiasis cases, which have reached 11,000. Prater made the remarks on Monday during the International Association for Food Protection’s yearly meeting, as reported by The New York Times. The statement comes amid growing public concern over the parasitic infection, which is often linked to contaminated fresh produce. The FDA is monitoring the outbreak but maintains that overall food safety measures are robust.
