CHINESE WOMAN EATS WILD MEAT, GETS SIX-INCH WORM IN HER BRAIN
Since it’s racist to even mention that Chinese people enjoy snarfing down a good plate of bat or scorpion or mealworm from time to time, we won’t “go there.”
So without editorialization or even the slightest aroma of gloating, we will merely report that a 23-year-old China-lady who claims she ate a plate of frogs was rushed to the hospital after experiencing headaches and a seizure because there was a live six-inch worm wriggling inside her brain.
We will pause simply to note that six inches is HUGE for China.
According to Dr. Dai Wei, chief medic of Gulou Hospital of Nanjing University:
Quote:During the operation, we found a creeping, long bug that was over 10 centimeters. It was white and live, like a noodle….It was still moving around when we took it out completely….[The worms] normally come from raw meat, mostly seafood, which contains a lot of parasites. Sometimes the worms get into a person’s brain through the blood and develop there…The patient was later diagnosed with paragonimiasis, a parasitic infection that sends cute little flukes to suckle on your lungs.
