Raw Oysters Go Through The Gambit Before Their Eaten

According to Business Insider, "Raw oysters are either still alive — or freshly killed — when you eat them. Many people think keeping them alive longer makes them safer to eat, but that's not the full story." It's very rare to run into a bad oyster. 100 people die from vibrio infections caused by bad oysters each year, when 450 people die from salmonella.
