  1. Recreational shellfish harvesters should be extra careful when collecting #oysters this weekend and next week to reduce their risk of illness. High temperatures are expected during the lowest tides of the year, creating conditions that can allow #Vibrio parahaemolyticus bacteria to grow quickly in oysters and increase the risk of illness from eating them raw or undercooked.

  8. Bought some oysters today and the woman at the register wanted to make sure I knew that two people recently died (flesh-eating bacteria) after eating some harvested in Louisiana. Very thoughtful of her. #oysters #bacteria #death #food #louisiana #vibrio

  10. #Drumpf era #CDC has stopped monitoring for several factors it once tracked for foodborne illness outbreaks. As of July 1, a critical surveillance program is ordered to only monitori for two pathogens instead of the previous eight.

    Currently only two #pathogens: #salmonella and #Shiga toxin-producing E. coli are being tracked federally, now ignored are #campylobacter, #cyclospora, #listeria, #shigella, #vibrio and #Yersinia.

    ‘Only a matter of time’: Warming ocean water will make #FleshEatingBacteria that infected #CapeCod swimmer more common

    By Sabrina Shankman Globe
    August 15, 2025

    "News that a Cape Cod swimmer contracted an infection from a bacteria that can cause a flesh-eating disease earlier this month has stunned many across #Massachusetts, but it was no surprise to David Hamer, an infectious disease expert at Boston University.

    " 'It’s been sort of only a matter of time,' said Hamer, who helps lead work on #ClimateChange and emerging diseases at the university.

    "The infection was caused by a #VibrioVulnificus — a bacteria that thrives in warm water and is more commonly found in areas like the Gulf Coast. Other bacteria in the Vibrio family, including those that cause cholera and acute gastroenteritis, similarly thrive in warm water.

    "That’s where climate change comes in, making #NewEngland waters friendlier for the potentially deadly bacteria. 'With warmer water temperatures moving further north, it allows Vibrios to survive, during summer months in particular, at higher latitudes than it had previously,' said Hamer.

    "And the water is warmer. Midsummer ocean temperatures were about 2.75 degrees warmer in the period from 2021 to 2025 than they were 20 years ago, according to data from an ocean temperature monitor in #WoodsHole, near where the swimmer contracted the virus."

    "This comes more than a decade after the start of the marine epidemic that has killed billions of #SeaStars... The 4-year investigation eventually pinpointed the microbial culprit: a strain of the bacterium #Vibrio pectenicida... The loss of #SunflowerSeaStars, which support #KelpForests by feeding on kelp-eating #SeaUrchins, has had widespread and lasting effects on ecosystems"

    Avoid the water because #vibrio: people get horrible skin infections from #flood waters

    Avoid the water because #alligators: they get uprooted and travel for miles cranky and lurking in bizarre spots

    Avoid the water because of floating gobs of fire #ants: they cling together and look for dry land, don't let them think you're dry land

    TLDR:

    Avoid #floodwaters

  37. R to @ECDC_EU: #Vibriosis is caused by different species of #Vibrio bacteria living in brackish waters.

    It can cause foodborne infections (consumption of raw/undercooked shellfish) or severe bloodstream infections when entering through an open wound.
