(CNN) — An outbreak of diarrhea caused by the parasite cyclospora has risen to more than 3,000 cases in Michigan and Ohio.

Michigan reported 2,640 cases as of 9:30 a.m. Monday, including 44 hospitalizations.

Ohio has reported 434 cases since June 1. At least 28 people have been hospitalized.

As of July 10, 31 states have reported cases to the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, although it’s not clear whether they’re all part of the same outbreak.

The CDC says “multiple states” have reported an increase in cases in the last two weeks compared with the same period in 2025. The agency said Friday that its national count — 843 confirmed cases since May 1 — is lower than states’ counts while cases undergo further analysis.

State and federal investigators say they haven’t yet been able to determine the source or sources causing this year’s cyclosporiasis cases.

Cyclosporiasis doesn’t typically pass directly from person to person. Rather, people become ill by eating or drinking something that’s been contaminated several weeks prior, usually fresh produce or water from a swimming pool.

People with cyclosporiasis may experience symptoms, including watery diarrhea, cramping and bloating, for weeks. Dehydration can land people in the hospital. Treatment is seven to 10 days of the combination antibiotic sulfamethoxazole-trimethoprim, which is sold as Bactrim or Septra.

To reduce risk of infection, people should thoroughly wash produce and cook fruits and vegetables, and can consider avoiding recreation water, like public swimming pools.

El presidente Donald Trump dijo el lunes que recomendó al gobernador de Carolina del Sur que la hermana del senador Lindsey Graham ocupara el escaño del legislador tras su repentina muerte durante el fin de semana.

“Recomendé al gobernador Henry McMaster a la maravillosa hermana de Lindsey Graham, Darline, para que sirva como senadora interina por el gran estado de Carolina del Sur”, escribió Trump en Truth Social. “¡Sería un homenaje fabuloso para Lindsey, quien la quería muchísimo!”.

Graham mantenía una relación muy cercana con su hermana, Darline Graham Nordone. El fallecido senador se convirtió en su tutor legal cuando tenía poco más de 20 años, después de que sus padres murieran con una diferencia de 15 meses entre sí.

Según la legislación estatal, McMaster puede designar a un sustituto temporal para ocupar el escaño que ha quedado vacante tras la muerte de Graham.

Sin embargo, dado que Graham debía someterse a la reelección este año, su fallecimiento desencadenará un proceso acelerado de elecciones primarias para elegir a su sustituto en la boleta electoral de noviembre.

(CNN) — President Donald Trump said Monday he recommended to South Carolina’s governor that Sen. Lindsey Graham’s sister be appointed to serve in the late lawmaker’s seat after he suddenly died over the weekend.

“I recommended, to Governor Henry McMaster, Lindsey Graham’s wonderful sister, Darline, to serve as interim Senator from the Great State of South Carolina,” Trump wrote on Truth Social. “This would be a fabulous tribute to Lindsey, who loved her dearly!”

Graham was close with his sister, Darline Graham Nordone. The late senator became her legal guardian when he was in his early 20s, after their parents died within 15 months of each other.

The late senator, then in his early 20s, became his sister’s legal guardian.

Under state law, McMaster can appoint a temporary replacement to fill Graham’s now-vacant seat.

But because Graham was up for reelection this year, his death will kick off a sprint primary election to replace him on the November ballot.

This is a developing story and will be updated.

Happy Monday, everyone, and welcome to the final week of this year’s World Cup.

The first of the two semifinals will get underway tomorrow when Spain takes on France but, until then, we have plenty of other topics to discuss.

In this edition of the newsletter, we’ll take you pitchside with one of the many photographers documenting this summer’s matches and discuss how one superstar’s life has changed during this record-breaking World Cup.

But first, ask yourself this: Is it possible to have too much of a good thing when it comes to soccer’s biggest tournament?

The Main Thing: FIFA to consider an even bigger World Cup

When it was announced that this year would be the largest World Cup in history, fought between a record 48 teams, there was a bit of pushback initially.

The World Cup should be selective, some argued. The overall quality of the games will be negatively impacted, others said.

And while both of those statements were true to some extent, the 48-team competition has won a lot of people over.

First, many of the debutants did themselves proud. Just look at Cape Verde reaching the knockout rounds or Curaçao winning over hearts with their passion and excitement (not to mention their sensational kits). If it wasn’t for the extended format, some of the best storylines at this World Cup would never have existed.

So, it’s perhaps only natural that FIFA President Gianni Infantino would consider adding even more nations to the mix.

“That’s definitely an issue that will be examined and discussed in the relevant committees after this World Cup,” he said when Swiss outlet Bluewin asked about the possibility of a 64-team tournament in the future.

“When organizing a World Cup, it’s important to organize it for the whole world – not just Europe and South America – but effectively the entire world. Every nation should be ⁠allowed to dream of participating in the World Cup.

“You can see that the quality of the teams is extremely high – and it’s getting higher and higher, all over the world. If you don’t give smaller countries a chance to participate in the World Cup, they’ll lack the incentive to keep improving.”

The next World Cup in 2030 is to be co-hosted by Spain, Portugal and Morocco. However, the first three matches will be played in Argentina, Uruguay and Paraguay to mark 100 years since the first edition of the tournament was played in Uruguay.

CONMEBOL, the governing body for South American soccer, has already proposed a 2030 World Cup consisting of 64 teams to properly celebrate the centenary.

And while many will see the benefits of such an expansion, both financially and in terms of legacy, there will be others who are less excited.

The tournament is already taking much longer because of the 104-game schedule. Players who reach the latter stages have little time off before their domestic club seasons get back underway as it stands. I can’t imagine players will be over the moon about yet more competition.

It feels like this proposal is still in the early stages, but it does raise an important question: Can you have too muc
