Approximately what proportion of people infected with Vibrio vulnificus die?
Answer: B
Correct answer: About one in five
The case fatality rate for V. vulnificus septicaemia is around twenty per cent, and higher still in those with liver disease. Death can follow within a day or two of onset, so treatment depends on recognising the infection early in someone who has recently eaten raw shellfish.
