Contaminant

Vibrio vulnificus

AKA: Flesh-eating Bacterium

Crimes: Responsible for flesh-eating wound infections and deadly illness from raw seafood. Victims can go from healthy to critical in hours.

Hang-outs: Lurks in warm, brackish coastal waters and hides in raw shellfish—especially oysters. Loves estuaries and summer heat.

Danger: Fast, aggressive, and often fatal. High-risk for people with liver disease, diabetes, or weakened immunity. Can cause sepsis and death within 48 hours.

Protection: Avoid swimming with open wounds. Cook shellfish thoroughly. Act fast, early treatment saves lives.

Look out for our ever-expanding Rogues' Gallery and case files, because you never know what might be lurking in your water.
