Don't worms in other genera (marine-mammal ascarids like Phocanema, Terranova, and Pseudoterranova) also cause the disease? Should the page be moved to Anasakiasis and include them? Dave (talk) 18:57, May 8, 2005 (UTC)

Technically, yes. I included it here as the other forms of infection are rarer and the articles on the species didn't exist, but if you think it should break out into its own article, that's good with me. Anilocra 19:38, 8 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Whatever you think is best. Dave (talk) 19:57, May 8, 2005 (UTC)

So I fixed the broken citation for #1, but I screwed up the numbering. Someone else with more knowledge on these tags help me out here? Thanks --24.82.242.132 (talk) 19:13, 21 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

In the section about Anisakiasis, it mentions areas of high prevalence including Holland, but then states that Holland has mostly eliminated it by requiring freezing of all herring... Does anybody know which is correct? Theuglyman (talk) 20:02, 22 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
