Walrus & Carpenter Oysters, LLC Farm oysters - recalled due to Vibrio parahaemolyticus

Recall notice

Rhode Island, United States

The Rhode Island Department of Health (RIDOH) announced the recall of oysters harvested from the Walrus & Carpenter Oysters, LLC Farm with harvest dates of 7/28/2023 until 8/19/2023 by Rocky Rhode Oysters Co., LLC, doing business as Walrus and Carpenter Oysters due to a potential link of the harvest area to a Vibrio parahaemolyticus outbreak investigation. RIDOH has confirmed that the product has not been distributed out of state and was only sold directly to Rhode Island restaurants.

Only the Walrus & Carpenter Oysters, LLC Farm, in the Dutch Harbor area of harvest area 7B in Rhode Island is impacted. (The other lease areas in harvest area 7B are not impacted.) Oysters from this lease may be listed on the shellfish tags as B2015-09-105. The Rhode Island Department of Environmental Management (DEM) closed this area for harvesting on August 19, 2023.

RIDOH is working with the dealer to ensure that the product is removed from commerce. Please do not consume the recalled products.

Vibrio parahaemolyticus infection may result in symptoms like diarrhea, abdominal cramps, nausea, vomiting, fever, and chills, typically lasting two to three days. Though often mild or moderate, a few cases may necessitate hospitalization - largely affecting children, the elderly, and people with weakened immune systems.

In case you are experiencing vibrio symptoms, it is important to report it. It can help to detect & resolve outbreaks early and prevent others from being harmed, and it enables better surveillance.
