What is this? These are bags of oysters sold under the brand Cultimer. They may contain norovirus, a germ that can cause stomach illness.

What's happening? The French government has recalled these oysters because tests found norovirus. Eating them could make you sick.

Does this affect me? If you bought these oysters in France, you should not eat them. People with weak immune systems need to be extra careful.

What should I do? Throw the oysters away or return them to the store. If you feel sick after eating them, ask your doctor about your symptoms.
