    In addition to cyclospora, surveillance of campylobacter, listeria, shigella, vibrio and Yersinia was cut. FoodNet now only regularly monitors two diseases: Salmonella and Shiga toxin-producing E. coli.

    A list of CDC talking points seen by NBC News last summer clearly blamed funding for the program’s drastic cutback.
