The oyster can induce HBV

This is true even though the word 'oyster hepatitis' may sound strange. In Europe, America and Latin America, oysters are eaten as a delicious food, but these raw oysters or half-boiled oysters spread the deadly disease. The practice of eating raw oysters has been going on for almost two thousand years. However, Vibrio bacteria, norovirus and other hepatitis viruses live in the oyster, according to the Virginia Department of Health. In addition, only 60,000 Americans are hospitalized each year for eating these shellfish. A 2016 U.S. report states that 100 patients die each year from a disease called vibriosis just by eating oysters. Besides, oysters contain many micro-organisms, some people suffer from severe allergic reactions due to eating these oysters. In some severe cases, events such as shortness of breath occur. According to experts, people who have been suffering from liver problems for a long time or have digestive problems are advised to give up the habit of eating these raw oysters. Moreover, many people have a record of contracting a deadly disease called hepatitis. There is also the risk of epidemic infection by norovirus. Consequently, mankind must now understand that not everything in creation is food , otherwise there could be another epidemic.
