Today's evening TV news says that the price of oysters has decreased sharply because one of the origins of the Norovirus infection is said to be from eating raw oysters. Despite that there's no evidence of epidemic food poisoning from oysters, but such a rumor is getting around in Japan. It's a shame to believe such groundless rumors.
I'm going to have oyster pan dish today or tomorrow. This food is very popular in Japan, especially in winter. We put oysters, tofu, various vegetables, anything if it's needed and Japanese dressing materials in the pan and boil them. Norovirus will disappear when heated up. It's lucky that oysters are cheap now.
