After eating oysters you develop the symptoms of food poisoning. Vibrio vulnificus is the infectious agent you might suspect.

Eating uncooked oysters contaminated with Vibrio vulnificus, a bacteria continually present in oceans where oysters are cultivated, such as the Gulf of Mexico, can cause severe illness and even death. Due to rising water temperatures in the summer, Vibrio vulnificus is more prevalent.

Although oysters should consistently be purchased from reliable sources, eating oysters from "clean" waterways or in reputable restaurants with high turnover does not offer safety because Vibrio vulnificus bacteria is not a result of pollution.

Things to keep in mind for safety measures-

  • Oysters should be purchased fully cooked, with the shells closed.
  • Oysters with cracked shells should be discarded.
  • Live oysters should be boiled for 3–5 minutes after the shells have opened.
