    Tapeworm infestations from eating raw salmon triples

    It's small, only 1 per 100,000, up from 0.32 per 100,000.

    The most useful part I found was this:

    According to U.S. Food and Drug Administration regulations, all fish meant to be served as sushi must be frozen for a specified period of time (usually a week) to kill lurking parasites.

    Rennie said no matter how fresh, unless you're buying certified "sushi grade" fish it's best not to try to serve it raw at home.
    Gotta start swiping "fresh fish is good sashimi fish" from my friends' minds.

    Symptoms of Tapeworm Infection

    The symptoms of tapeworm infection are:

    * Nausea
    * Diarrhea
    * Abnominal pain or discomfort
    * Hunger
    * Fatigue
