Cofepris dismisses conclusive evidence linking Mexico to Salmonella and Cyclospora outbreaks in the US

The Mexican Federal Commission for the Protection against Sanitary Risk (Cofepris) has officially stated that there is no conclusive evidence linking domestic agricultural products to recent outbreaks of Salmonella Javiana and Cyclospora cayetanensis in the United States. This announcement follows the closure of an investigation by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regarding the source of the contamination.

The findings serve to clarify the status of Mexican exports in relation to the reported health incidents. By dismissing a direct link, Mexican health authorities have addressed concerns regarding the safety and regulatory standing of agricultural goods currently being distributed in the U.S. market.
