🇨🇦 Why washing your fruit and vegetables won't save you from the parasite causing 'watery diarrhea'

Best part of the story: Canada may not be safer at all, we just are not detecting it. That is the modern public-health model in one neat little package. If you do not look, you do not find, and if you do not find, Ottawa gets to keep pretending the system works. Meanwhile more than 3,000 people in 31 U.S. states have reportedly been sickened, and a Canadian expert is flatly saying imported produce from Mexico, Central and South America is an obvious risk vector, as reported.

Notice the pattern. We are told to trust the supply chain, trust the inspection regime, trust the agencies, and keep consuming globalized food pipelines that nobody can properly police. Then when sewage-linked parasites hitch a ride on berries, herbs, salad mix or even oysters, the answer is not border caution or source control first. It is the usual institutional shrug. Canada imports a lot of fresh produce from endemic regions, PHAC is not investigating any outbreaks, and Canadians are supposed to believe that means all clear. Globalized abundance, now with watery diarrhea.
