AGP Executive Report

Last update: 8 hours ago

Cyclospora Update: CDC says the parasite that causes cyclosporiasis is now reported in 45 states, with confirmed cases since May 1 rising to 6,707 and more than 11,500 additional suspected cases under review—diarrhea is the main symptom and counts are expected to keep climbing. North Carolina Outbreak Watch: NCDHHS reports 718 cyclosporiasis cases statewide since May 1, with interviews pointing to parsley and cilantro as common foods among sick people, while officials still haven’t identified a single confirmed source or recall. Food Access Under Strain: With drought hammering crops, hunger relief groups say higher produce prices and tighter supply are limiting what they can buy for food pantries across the Triangle, worsening food insecurity. Mosquito Control Research: NC State studies suggest backyard mosquito sprays and repeated insecticide use may be helping tiger mosquitoes evolve resistance, making treatments less effective over time. Care on the Move: CommWell Health expands access with a new mobile medical-and-dental unit serving multiple southeastern NC counties, including disaster-response capability. Mental Health Training: Pender County is ramping Crisis Intervention Training for deputies to better handle people in mental health crises and special needs situations. Community Schools: Lakewood School District launches a community cookout tied to the North Carolina Community Schools initiative, aiming to connect families with wellness and support services.
