A viral video on X underscored the risks of consuming raw sashimi, particularly in regions with sanitation challenges. A woman who ate sashimi in India suffered severe dizziness, requiring hospitalization and a three-week recovery period to regain mobility. The video linked her illness to septic arthritis caused by typhoid, likely from contaminated water used to defrost the sashimi. A 2021 National Library of Medicine study reported India’s high typhoid burden, with 10 million cases annually, emphasizing the prevalence of water-borne diseases. The World Health Organization recommends travelers update routine vaccinations to mitigate risks of infectious diseases, including typhoid, in such regions. The incident highlights the importance of caution with raw foods in areas with sanitation concerns, reinforcing why cooking is a critical safety measure.
