💨 Abstract

At least 74 people, including an eight-year-old child, have fallen ill with cryptosporidium after visiting Marlborough Grange Farm in Wales. Sixteen people were hospitalized. The parasite, linked to calf and lamb petting sessions, causes gastrointestinal symptoms like diarrhea, stomach pains, and fever, lasting from days to weeks. Public Health Wales is investigating, and the farm has halted its petting sessions.
