Quotes:
Sushi lovers are being warned of the dangers of ingesting parasites
from raw and undercooked fish.

Doctors writing in British Medical Journal Case Reports said sushi's
growing popularity in the West could be linked to a rise in parasitic
infections.
Experts treated a 32-year-old man, in Lisbon, who was found to have
parasite larvae on his gut lining.
He had been suffering stomach pain, vomiting and fever for a week.

They added that most cases of anisakiasis to date had been reported in
Japan, but warned: "However, it has been increasingly recognised in
Western countries."

We'll have to ban foreign food immigration now.  :)
