Mexico Warns of Diarrhea Risk When Visiting US

A Spike in Cases Across the USAccording to Mexican health officials, U.S. public health agencies have seen a sharp increase in cases since May 2026. Unknown Source: Health authorities have not yet identified the specific food or water source responsible for the contamination, according to the Mexican Ministry of Health. State health officials reported more than 4,300 cases by mid-July, though this includes probable or suspected cases and has more immediate local reporting. What Happens NextPublic health officials say the investigation will likely take time. Identifying a common food source can be challenging because the parasite has an incubation period of up to two weeks and food supply chains are complex and widespread. 🖊️️🤖

Man dressed as fox pulls out of Clacton election because it’s become a ‘circus’

His announcement last Thursday prompted a wave of comments on social media accusing him of threatening to split the ‘novelty candidate’ vote in Clacton. Farage critics have sought to frame the by-election as a race between the Reform leader and ‘independent space warrior’ Count Binface. In every post about Clacton on its Facebook page, Pownall’s campaign group Protect the Wild was forced to comment insisting his vote count would be too small to make a difference. In a video posted last night, Pownall said: ‘This by-election was already something of a farce, I think we all know that. An Ipsos poll published last week found that 33% of Brits hoped Binface would win the Clacton by-election, compared to 21% backing Farage. 🖊️️🤖
