Jeff Tiedrich - good news, citizen! your explosive ass mayhem will only last through August

it’s looking more and more like it may have been a mistake to put our nation’s healthcare in the hands of Mister Excuse Me While I Snort This Heroin Off This Toilet Seat And Oh By The Way, I Have No Idea How Germs Work — because one minute, everyone’s asses are working perfectly normally, and the next, it’s oh dear lord, holy fuck.

A parasitic infection that causes miserable bouts of watery, “explosive” diarrhea is surging across the United States. Several states are seeing cyclosporiasis rates that are unusually high for this time of year. Meanwhile, health authorities are scrambling to identify the source driving the outbreaks.

As of July 14, nearly 7,000 cases of cyclosporiasis have been reported by at least 34 states, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.


excuse me, cyclospora is what parasite? I’m sorry, but those are two words you never want to see next to each other in a headline.
