Singapore Yu Sang fish got “GBS”

MOH and NEA have advised the public not to consume raw fish dishes using Song (or Asian Bighead carp) and Toman (snakehead fish) in this news report (Traces of GBS found in raw fish samples: MOH reported in Channel NewsAsia). That is because traces of Group B Streptococcus (GBS) bacteria has been detected in some samples.
-
Later, when I went to the kitchen to get water, I told my wife that Singapore “Yu Sang” fish has got GBS. She looked at me puzzled. 
-
I repeated, “Don’t eat Yu Sang because they got GBS”. She gave me a similar puzzled look.
-
I laughed out loud when she explained to me later why she had looked puzzled. This is what she thought I said.
