Vibrio vulnificus...
Hmmm, not the MRSA (Multiple antibiotic Resistant Staph aureus)
that is usually the star of the show in these sad cases.

I grew up in Walton County, Fl (where the beaches have snow white sand and the water is clear blue/green), in the Panhandle. After seeing the brown water, there was no way I was going swimming at that Texas beach. Yep. The silt from the mouth of the Mississippi tends tomake a mess out of swimming conditions in the western half of the Gulf. The outside beaches of the Mississippi barrier islands can be nice, but most everything inside that is better suited to fishing than swimming.
