What is this? Some frozen smoked salmon from Poland may have tiny worms called Anisakis. These worms can make people sick if they eat the fish raw or not fully cooked.
What's happening? Italy found these worms in the salmon and told stores to take it off shelves. The problem has been fixed, but some fish may still be in homes.
Does this affect me? If you bought this salmon in Italy, check your freezer. The risk is low, but you should be careful.
What should I do? Do not eat the fish raw. Cook it fully. If you feel sick after eating it, ask your doctor or pharmacist for advice.
