Where have there been cases in the U.S.?

Humans have been infected in Hawaii, Louisiana and Texas, University of Florida researchers said in a study published last year. The CDC points out there have rarely been cases in other states.

Nope. Rat lungworms are worldwide. Never eat a (land or freshwater) mollusc without cooking it. Same goes for crustaceans. More than a few people have gotten rat lungworm from eating raw crawfish.
