"Cyclosporiasis is caused by eating food or drinking water contaminated by feces containing the parasite. Historically, people would acquire it outside the United States.
However, of the 190 cases reported to public health authorities between the start of May and the middle of June, 145 involve someone who hasn't traveled beyond US borders in the last couple of weeks."
Just say it, the US is a shithole country now so of course we are starting to get awful diseases locally.
...sharting to get awful diseases...am I right?!?
Does this have anything to do with how we deregulated all the food production and gutted the FDA and replaced everyone there with lobbiests from the companies that produce food? Or something like that?
Couldn't be.
Yeah, that's just the free market. The invisible hand.
While this doesn't happen often, it's not unheard of. You might remember an outbreak from 2018 linked to salads sold by McDonald's.
See? Not the first time. Last time it happened was 2 years into-
eating food or drinking water contaminated by feces
The fuck are you doing, America?!
Washing hands is woke!
A true shitpost. As I’m taking a shit, no less. Bravo.
In all honesty, you should probably leave it behind.
Oh nos, better ask RFK what we should do. I'm sure he will know the answer...
Go for a swim in a cesspool to build up your tolerance
Obviously
Hmm, thought for sure there would be some racoon dick involved but a nice swamp swim sounds about right.
Quick everyone jump in the reflecting pool
Build immunity by snorting the leftover sprays from the seat.
Better load up on more horse paste…
Wait but this exact disease is literally what ivermectin treats successfully lol
Well now I don't want it! >:(
This was the worms plan all along...
Even Mother Nature is exposing the US is a shithole.
Wouldn't this be mother nature helping the US to be a shithole? The disease is nature.
Hasn't there been a "surge of explosive diarrhea" running the country since the 20th of January 2025?
that's technically a bolus of explosive diarrhea
At this point, the shitpost comm is going to be able to just actually focus on literal shit related stories.
reality is enshitttifying aughguhah!
Headline hits differently if you read it while on the toilet.
Especially if you have diarrhea 🤣
Who needs a poop knife, I have diarrhea!
It's and old reference, sir, but it checks out.
I didn’t think “explosive diarrhea” was a real term. Not surprising though, water treatment has been failing infrastructure for many years. Flint Michigan put it in the public eye, and it’s gotten much, much worse.
That and decades of deregulating and vertically integrating the food supply.
The Noah Kahan concert I incident makes more sense now.
I've been using a water filter to filter my tap water for years, because tap water tastes nasty.
WHO'S LAUGHING NOW, BITCHES! I mean, not me because things still suck, but at least I'm reasonably sure I won't get a disease after my city reduced funding for water treatment.
Idk what kind of water filter you're using, but it's probably not filtering out bacteria.
It's a sawyer, and both marketing materials and real world testing say otherwise. Personal experience also tells me my filter is keeping me healthy while my neighbors don't even bother listening to boil advisories.
water filters won't filter out bacteria or viruses. Most of them just remove chloride ions, which then encourages bacterial growth.
My tap water goes through months of smelling funny at a time where I get nervous that it is unsafe to drink. I thought about buying a filter for the tap like a Brita filter or something...but my (admittedly very minimal) research showed that these only filter out things like mineral contaminants. Bacteria and other pathogens don't seem to get filtered out by most standard filters that people are using. It's just that they filter out the hard water.
What do you use?
I think the only real answer is RO and UV filtration.
RO won't remove everything, but UV will kill everything.
I'm not Chief O'Brien but I use a reverse-osmosis water filter installed under the sink, that has its own drinking water tap. It has 6 or 7 stages of filters and a pressurized tank to hold a few gallons of filtered water. And it does remove bacteria, chlorine, fluoride, lead, and pretty much everything but water. I installed it about 10 years ago and it was a fantastic investment. It cost under $200 if I recall, and the yearly cost for filters is about $50 to $100 to have unlimited pure water. Filters must be replaced every 6-12 months, except for some like the RO membrane that lasts 2-3 years.
I used to live outside of Dallas and they had an algae bloom during the summer in whatever reservoir that would make the ice maker reek of garlic for a few months a year in the summer.
It's just Trump on a rally tour again. Explosive Diarrhea is his SS codename.
Make America healthy again, huh.
haha
That really is an unfortunate title.
Everyone get inside!
Huh... I thought that was just people setting off fireworks early.
Edit: So immediately after posting this comment, I got a text from my apartment management about not setting off fireworks in the complex. Spooky.
Fire in the hole
Don't forget your raincoat or umbrella when you go out!
