As a native of Ningbo,
The 68-year-old Mrs. Chen did not expect anything,
Eat seafood for a lifetime,
But he was put down by a few pounds of blood cockles.
Last month, Mrs. Chen bought several pounds of blood cockles and put them in the refrigerator. There are still many left after the banquet, and she has been reluctant to throw it away on weekdays when she is frugal. Just half a month ago, at dinner time, she took out a little hot water and ate it. As a result, diarrhea began that night.
"At first I didn't take it seriously, thinking it was bad." Mrs. Chen recalled that last week she began to feel nauseous, weak, unable to lift her spirits, and her urine color and skin color began to turn yellow. Sensing something unusual, she immediately went to the local community health center for treatment. As a result, the liver function increased by dozens of times compared with the normal value, and Mrs. Chen was frightened and rushed to the Department of Liver Disease and Infection of the People's Hospital Affiliated to Ningbo University.
After a series of examinations, it was found that it was hepatitis E virus that "put down" Mrs. Chen. It turned out that when she ate the blood cockles, she only passed the hot water and was not cooked thoroughly. Fortunately, after the active treatment of medical staff, there is no major problem.
According to Dr. Li Xianpeng, chief physician of Mrs. Chen, hepatitis E virus is mainly caused by drinking unclean raw water and eating uncooked seafood and meat, and there are cases in Ningbo every year, and this year he has treated 3 such patients.
Li Xianpeng introduced that hepatitis E virus is a common virus, after infection with hepatitis E virus, the incubation period is generally 10 to 60 days, an average of 40 days, some acute cases appear symptoms within 3-5 days, adults are easily completely cured.
However, specific groups of people infected with hepatitis E will be life-threatening, such as the elderly, children, pregnant women, such people have poor resistance, which will lead to severe hepatitis and endanger life.
"Among the underripe seafood, shellfish seafood is the most likely to cause hepatitis E, because after the gills of this type of seafood absorb water, they will filter the virus in the water and stay in the body, if there is hepatitis E virus in it, when eaten, it is not cooked to kill, there is a risk of infection." Li Xianpeng introduced that unclean raw water should also pay attention to, once the water is contaminated by the virus, there is also a possibility of infection after raw drinking.
He reminded that citizens who like to eat seafood raw should pay attention to the fact that contaminated raw water and underripe seafood may also cause intestinal infectious diseases such as bacterial dysentery. Once someone in the family is infected with hepatitis E virus, in addition to early medical treatment, but also do a good job of two steps to avoid infection: meals, dishes and chopsticks must be separated and disinfected; wash hands frequently, wash in accordance with scientific handwashing methods.

In 2019, 4 young fitness coaches in Shenzhen, Guangdong Province, went to eat supper after work in the evening, ordered a pot of lobster, two dozen grilled oysters, and as a result, when they finished eating at ten o'clock the next night, the first person began to have abdominal pain, and then others also began. At first, it was not tight, and one of them went to the toilet 20 times in two or three hours, and he could not stand up.
Experts from the Shenzhen Municipal Center for Disease Control and Prevention suspected foodborne norovirus infection on the spot. The CDC organized experts to check the practitioners and surrounding environment of the supper stalls and found that the four fitness instructors became ill because they ate uncooked oysters.
According to experts from the Shenzhen Municipal Center for Disease Control and Prevention, oysters, like other double shellfish seafood, eat in a way that gills filter large amounts of seawater, and if oysters grow in polluted waters, they are vulnerable to pollution.
Norovirus is attached to the digestive system of oysters, can be concentrated to 99 times the surrounding seawater, it is difficult to remove norovirus in the oyster body through cleaning, and the purification treatment is not very effective. Therefore, the risk of eating oysters or uncooked double shellfish seafood is particularly high.

Last year, the Department of Infectious Diseases of Shenzhen People's Hospital came to a family of 3, and they successively had symptoms such as fever, abdominal pain, bloating, fatigue, decreased appetite, and dry cough.
Examination in the hospital found that eosinophils were significantly elevated in the blood routine of 3 people. After parasitic antibodies, CT and other examinations, they were all diagnosed with "lung trematodiasis".
After careful questioning, I learned that the family tasted delicious drunken crab. A month later, the illness broke out and the family was admitted to the hospital. If the medical treatment is not timely, the parasite will invade the brain and cause a brain hernia, and it may not even be able to save life.
Lung fluke disease, also known as chocosomiasis, is a disease caused by the parasitism of chondrozoans in human organs.
The main route of infection is raw or semi-raw food (e.g., pickled, drunk or roasted) freshwater crabs or cockroaches infected with fluke cysticers, or drinking contaminated raw water.
