A simple cut can now lead to serious trouble along North Carolina’s coast, as cases of flesh-eating Vibrio bacteria are climbing fast this summer. With sea temperatures running hotter than usual and heavy rains washing nutrients into the water, experts say Vibrio is showing up in every coastal sample—something unheard of just 20 years ago. Local hospitals are treating more infections, and health officials are urging everyone to be extra cautious, especially if you have open wounds. Have you changed your beach habits because of these warnings? #Health #BodyHealth #NorthCarolina
