Possible Cryptosporidiosis Outbreak Reported In Champaign And Clark Counties

cdc.gov

The Clark and Champaign county health departments say they're investigating 23 possible cases of cryptosporidiosis linked to dairy calves brought to the region for youth 4-H projects. 

The calves were sold to children.  A Clark County epidemiologist says hydrogen peroxide is the only known disinfectant for killing the  parasite. No other information has been released.
