Drudge Retort: The Other Side of the News

It's still unclear what has caused more than a thousand people to fall ill with a condition that can cause "explosive" diarrhea, but it is clear that some states have been more impacted than others. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said that, between the start of May and mid-June, at least 145 cases of cyclosporiasis had been reported in the U.S. Cases of the parasite-based sickness are common each year from May through August, but some states are seeing larger-than-average spikes in cases. Michigan alone has confirmed nearly 1,000 cases so far. On average, the state usually sees about 50 cases a year.

A federal-state partnership that monitors for foodborne illnesses quietly scaled back its operations nearly two months ago.
As of July 1, the Foodborne Diseases Active Surveillance Network (FoodNet) program has reduced surveillance to just two pathogens: salmonella and Shiga toxin-producing E. coli (STEC), a spokesperson for the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention told NBC News.
Before July, the program had been tracking infections caused by six additional pathogens: campylobacter, cyclospora, listeria, shigella, vibrio and Yersinia. Some of them can lead to severe or life-threatening illnesses, particularly for newborns and people who are pregnant or have weakened immune systems.
