  • “Cyclospora infection can occur due to eating contaminated, imported raw produce, especially leafy greens, fresh herbs and berries. Locally-grown produce is not known to carry Cyclospora,” the BCCDC said in a release.

    The parasite is commonly found in tropical and subtropical areas, including Peru, Cuba, India, Nepal, Mexico, Guatemala, Dominican Republic, and Southeast Asia.

    Symptoms of the illness can include diarrhea, abdominal cramps, nausea, and vomiting. Some people also experience a fever.

    “One thing of note is that the diarrhea for cyclospora can last for quite a while — [it] can last for a few weeks,” BCCDC public health physician Dr. Mayank Singal said.







  • Thank you for your input! I didn’t realize that net worth in stocks, GICs, HISA & registered accounts could be considered eligible assets for borrowing in Canada, which is fantastic. I’m definitely going to look into this further.

    Regarding Interactive Brokers, I have some reservations about their management style, especially after their chairman, who is also their largest shareholder, criticized retail investors during the GME short squeeze, suggesting that normal people buying and holding a stock and causing a squeeze is manipulation. It makes me question their trustworthiness.

    I truly appreciate your insights and find them enlightening.

    Thanks for sharing!
