2026-07-14 22:33:12
According to CNBC, Yum Brands’ Taco Bell said it removed limited items from some restaurants as a precaution, while noting U.S. health officials have not confirmed a link between the widening cyclosporiasis outbreak and the chain or any specific food product. Yum shares fell as much as 4.5% after The Washington Post reported federal and state officials were investigating whether lettuce served at Taco Bell may be associated with the outbreak. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said Tuesday that lab-confirmed cases rose to 1,645, up by more than 800 from a week earlier, with 34 states reporting cases; the outbreak began on May 1 and has resulted in 141 hospitalizations as of July 13, with no deaths reported.
