Cyclospora Outbreak: Michigan’s cyclospora outbreak has surged to nearly 1,000 cases (992) and about 40 hospitalizations, with investigations expanding across 28 states and no single source identified yet—officials warn tracing is hard because the parasite’s spread is difficult to link to one food chain. Cross-Border Health Risk: The same parasite cluster is also driving cases in neighboring Ohio (306 reported in Lucas County), raising concern for the wider Midwest as health teams keep searching for the common exposure. ICE Shooting Fallout: In Houston, Mexican citizen Lorenzo Salgado Araujo was killed during an ICE operation; multiple reports say agents involved were not wearing body cameras, while detainees and family members dispute DHS’s account and call for independent review. Mexico Response to U.S. Enforcement: Mexico’s government is pursuing legal action over deaths of Mexicans in U.S. anti-migrant operations, as protests and demands for accountability grow. Environmental Health Watch: The UN’s weather agency reports record sand and dust storms affecting parts of the U.S.-Mexico border region, with dust linked to respiratory and public health strain. Mexico Jobs Snapshot: Baja California led Mexico in formal job creation in the first half of 2026, adding 76,048 IMSS-registered workers, pushing its total formal workforce above 1.07 million.
