What temp kills vibrio?
Chef's answer
* Cooking can be very effective in killing the Vibrio parahaemolyticus bacteria, but oysters that are steamed, barbecued or served "Rockefeller-style" may be undercooked. Officials advise that the internal temperature of the oysters reach at least 145 degrees to kill the bacteria.
