Flesh eating bacteria cases Gulf Coast
Hi all,
Don't want to sound like a harbringing of doom but don't think I've seen this mentioned on here but another case of this was announced on news again over here. Third case we've heard about it the past two weeks since we've been here. My other half has banned us from going to the gulf coast because of it. News saying young children, elderly and people with low immune systems are most vulnerable and should avoid swimming in certain waters and avoid under cooked sea food. Scary stuff. BTW we aren't going now as I had a weakened immune system for quite a bit last year so not risking it abcactionnews/news/s...ating-bacteria clickorlando/health/...ating-bacteria |

Yes, it was in the Gulf area (near Destin I think), the bacteria is fresh water based. Swimming in the ocean is fine. And even in fresh water, the risk is very minimal. Just be sure to avoid if you have any cuts, scrapes or open wounds.
