Summary
Mexico's government said an FDA investigation into a cyclospora outbreak linked to lettuce did not conclusively identify the source of contamination. The FDA had earlier reported finding the parasite in a wastewater tank, a drainage ditch and a field at a Taylor Farms processing site in Mexico, tied to an outbreak that sickened thousands over the summer, but said it could not determine how the contamination occurred.
