Shellfish can harbor various bacterial infections, with Vibrio species being the most common culprits. Vibrio vulnificus, for instance, can cause severe gastrointestinal illness or wound infections, particularly in individuals with compromised immune systems. Consuming raw or undercooked shellfish increases the risk of these infections, which can lead to serious health complications. Proper cooking and handling of shellfish are essential to reduce the risk of bacterial infections.
