The U.S. Public Health Service's Center for Disease Control in Atlanta warns that raw fish may contain Anisakidae, marine worms that can cause fever and abdominal problems in humans. According to the CDC, one California man pulled one of the worms out of his throat ten days after dining on sashimi prepared from raw white sea bass.
