A dream all-inclusive holiday can quickly become an expensive inconvenience if illness strikes, even when accommodation, meals, and drinks are already paid for.
The UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) has warned holidaymakers about a sharp rise in cyclospora infections among travellers returning from Mexico, with dozens of cases linked to popular beach destinations, including Riviera Maya and Cancún. While the parasite is best known for causing severe watery diarrhoea, its impact can extend beyond health, disrupting travel plans and leaving holidaymakers facing unexpected expenses.
