Man dies from the crab he was preparing for dinner

In Singapore a man pricked by a live crab he was preparing for dinner died 48 hours later in a rare case of flesh-eating bacteria. The doctors told that he had been infected by a rare flesh eating bacteria called Vibrio.

My mother always told me to make sure that your dinner is dead before cooking it. Don't worry cooking will destroy the bacteria, so crab is still my favorite sea food. Preparing a live crab however, I'll leave it to the professionals.
