    Washing your hands after handing raw shellfish Avoid contaminating cooked shellfish with raw shellfish and its juices Washing wounds and cuts thoroughly if they have been exposed to seawater, raw seafood or its juices

    I think I am done with shellfish for a while. All of the water in the Florida region has been very warm this year so if that bacteria is in it…

    An older guy that goes to my church had this and it almost killed him, got a good part of one of his arms before they got a handle on it IIRC

      Vibrio is generally a nasty genus. It includes this, several other pathogens (like cholera), and it also is the likely source of tetrodotoxin, which is used by things like pufferfish and poisonous salamanders.

    First malaria, then leprosy, now this. Florida, I’d ask if you’re ok, but clearly you’re not.

      I mean every shitty bacteria/fungus/virus that has plagued humanity started in a tropical area. Florida is a subtropical state which due to climate change is rapidly becoming more and more tropical.

        You almost had it. Your comment was pretty good and then you forgot a couple words at the end and ruined it. Good job buddy.
