The Oregonian – what else to all a publication from Oregon – reports Oregon scientists have confirmed that three people who ate raw oysters harvested from Yaquina Bay were sickened by norovirus.

The positive lab results follow reports of 16 people in Oregon, Washington and Massachusetts who got sick after eating the oysters, said Meredith Vandermeer, epidemiologist with the Public Health Division.

Dawn Smith, food safety specialist with the Department of Agriculture, said that all of the suspect oysters in the U.S. have been pulled off the marketplace.
