Between 2005 and 2018, rates of cyclosporiasis infections were low in Middlesex-London and Ontario, however, both local and provincial rates increased across that time period. Recent increases may be partially due to changes in laboratory methods.

In general, the local rate was similar to or lower than the provincial rate, with rate among Middlesex-London residents being significantly lower than the Ontario rate in 2005, 2006, and 2010.
