Norovirus often lurks in all kinds of shellfish if people eat these foods without cooking them. Once infected with norovirus, it will cause diarrhea. If it is serious, it will cause very serious harm to your life and health. This time, many Norovirus infections occurred in South Korea, which was also caused by people eating uncooked oysters.
One: Korean people are infected with the virus by eating oysters.
As we all know, oysters live in water. If this oyster is not thoroughly washed and cooked, it will eat many foods rich in viruses and bacteria. It may lead to the risk of norovirus infection, which may lead to headache and diarrhea. Severe illness will also have a very important impact on the life safety of infected people.
Two: The main hosts of Norovirus are all kinds of shellfish.
The main hosts of norovirus are all kinds of shellfish, such as scallops, clams and oysters, but bivalves are the most susceptible to infection. Because their own food source depends on the water quality. Because the water in many farms does not flow regularly, these shellfish are at the greatest risk of being infected with norovirus. Personally, I suggest that you can buy some shellfish near the ocean to eat, because the ocean is mobile, and norovirus has the least impact on shellfish attachment.
Three: eat shellfish cooked food, avoid raw food. It is the most effective means to prevent norovirus infection.
Of course, whether it's shellfish in the offshore or sea area, I personally suggest that it must be cooked and eaten raw. Because norovirus itself is not resistant to high temperature, it is necessary to cook seafood until it is mature to kill them. Only in this way can the infection and occurrence of norovirus be prevented to the greatest extent.
