State health officials say there are two ways to contract the disease: by eating raw, tainted shellfish — usually oysters — or when an open wound comes in contact with bacteria in warm seawater.
Oh dear. We both love raw oysters and we were planning a trip to O'Shucks as soon as we arrive in The Villages. Normally I don't pay much attention to "gloom and doom" news. But this recent article makes me think that eating raw oysters may not be a great idea right now.
