Title: Sushi leaves Chinese man's body riddled with tapeworms.
Post by: Taz on September 27, 2014, 07:47:15 am

The pictures made a shiver through my spine.

Is there any way to prevent this for us raw eaters?

Cant that just be treated with antibiotics?

antibiotics don't really touch them as far as I understand.  There are specific de wormers for each type that work quite well.

That "article" is from the Daily Mail.  That publication has ZERO credibility.

The Daily Mail is hardly on the same level as the National Enquirer etc.. I find that all newspapers, UK or otherwise, are too biased on certain subjects. So I tend to, daily,  read  the Guardian, the Daily Telegraph, and the Daily Mail in order to get a fuller picture, not counting info from Ron Paul etc.
