What is the Vibrio bacterium?
The Vibrio bacterium that caused the fulminant disease is typically caused by eating raw or undercooked seafood. Symptoms manifest within the first 24 hours with dysentery, abdominal cramps, nausea and vomiting, and symptoms can last up to three days. But it’s a “rare” disease, he says Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). In mild cases, no treatment is required. About one in three people who become infected with the bacterium die from the infection.
