Hrithik Roshan's girlfriend, Saba Azad, was hospitalised for 14 days for Cyclospora cayetanensis, a microscopic, single-celled parasite that causes an intestinal infection named Cyclosporiasis. The parasite causes diarrhoea, nausea, vomiting, and loss of appetite and is spread by drinking or eating fruits and vegetables that were in contact with untreated water. Cyclosporiasis is not contagious.
