RFK Jr. says cyclosporiasis outbreak 'under control' despite 1,600 cases

Original: RFK Jr. says cyclosporiasis outbreak is 'under control' amid at least 1,600 cases in 5 states

Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said a cyclosporiasis outbreak is 'under control' even as at least 1,600 cases have been reported across five US states. The intestinal illness, typically linked to contaminated food or water, has prompted concern among public health observers questioning the assessment given the growing case count.

Why now: The claim that the outbreak is under control conflicts with the reported 1,600 cases across multiple states, drawing scrutiny.
