“…In North Europe regions, cholera (caused by V. cholerae serotypes O1 and O139) does not occur, and vibriosis is mostly caused by V. alginolyticus, V. cholerae non-O1 and non-O139, V. parahaemolyticus, and V. vulnificus [141]. The reported vibriosis caused by non-O1 and non-O139 V. cholera, causes sporadic cases of gastroenteritis and extraintestinal infections, such as ocular infections in immunocompromised patients or patients with chronic liver disease (Table 4).…”

“…In 2018, and in millions of tons (Mt), the global capture of marine fish reached 94.4 Mt (marine 84.4), followed by fish produced in aquaculture 82.1 Mt (marine 30.89), aquatic algae (mostly seaweed) 32.4 Mt, mollusks (mainly bivalves) 17.7 Mt, and crustaceans 9.4 Mt [185]. The rising contamination of sea water including from inadequately treated sewage effluent, and the increase in the world trade of seafood along with the increase in its consumption in raw or undercooked conditions, have resulted in an increase in infections caused by Vibrio [30,141,184]. In sub-Saharan countries, the contamination of drinking and recreational water and the consumption of inadequately cooked aquatic food products remain a threat to public health [57,184].…”

“…All the players involved in water and water resources exploration should considerer collaborative networks, and a multiparametric approach of microbial indicators of quality and pollution in water systems. The research network VibrioNet proposes study of the non-cholera vibrio pathogenic species (V. parahaemolyticus, V. vulnificus, V. cholerae non-O1, non-O139, V. alginolyticus) in marine environments and in seafood consumed by humans, and their risks in central Europe [141].…”

Vibrio spp.: Life Strategies, Ecology, and Risks in a Changing Environment

Vibrios are ubiquitous bacteria in aquatic systems, especially marine ones, and belong to the Gammaproteobacteria class, the most diverse class of Gram-negative bacteria. The main objective of this review is to update the information regarding the ecology of Vibrio species, and contribute to the discussion of their potential risk in a changing environment. As heterotrophic organisms, Vibrio spp. live freely in aquatic environments, from marine depths to the surface of the water column, and frequently may be associated with micro- and macroalgae, invertebrates, and vertebrates such as fish, or live in symbiosis. Some Vibrio spp. are pathogenic to humans and animals, and there is evidence that infections caused by vibrios are increasing in the world. This rise may be related to global changes in human behavior (increases in tourism, maritime traffic, consumption of seafood, aquaculture production, water demand, pollution), and temperature. Most likely in the future, Vibrio spp. in water and in seafood will be monitored in order to safeguard human and animal health. Regulators of the microbiological quality of water (marine and freshwater) and food for human and animal consumption, professionals involved in marine and freshwater production chains, consumers and users of aquatic resources, and health professionals will be challenged to anticipate and mitigate new risks.

Over the last two decades, Vibrio vulnificus infections have emerged as an increasingly serious public health threat along the German Baltic coast. To manage related risks, near real-time (NRT) modelling of V. vulnificus quantities has often been proposed. Such models require spatially explicit input data, for example, from remote sensing or numerical model products. We tested if data from a hydrodynamic, a meteorological, and a biogeochemical model are suitable as input for an NRT model system by coupling it with field samples and assessing the models’ ability to capture known ecological parameters of V. vulnificus. We also identify the most important predictors for V. vulnificus in the Baltic Sea by leveraging the St. Nicolas House Analysis. Using a 27-year time series of sea surface temperature, we have investigated trends of V. vulnificus season length, which pinpoint hotspots mainly in the east of our study region. Our results underline the importance of water temperature and salinity on V. vulnificus abundance but also highlight the potential of air temperature, oxygen, and precipitation to serve as predictors in a statistical model, albeit their relationship with V. vulnificus may not be causal. The evaluated models cannot be used in an NRT model system due to data availability constraints, but promising alternatives are presented. The results provide a valuable basis for a future NRT model for V. vulnificus in the Baltic Sea.
