      Vibrio parahaemolyticus bacteria live in saltwater, and are often found in raw seafood. People who eat raw or undercooked shellfish become infected usually within 24 hours, causing symptoms such as watery diarrhea with stomach cramping, nausea, vomiting, fever and chills. Symptoms can last up to three days. More severe infections are rare, and occur more commonly in people with weakened immune systems. An estimated 4,500 cases of V. parahaemolyticus infection occur each year in the U.S., according to the CDC. Most infections can be prevented by thoroughly cooking seafood.
