OBJECTIVES  Confirmation of  Kudoa septempunctata  ( K. septempunctata ) as the pathogenic agent causing acute food poisoning remains under debate owing to inconsistencies in the reproducibility of experimental evidence. Higher intake of olive flounder infected with  K. septempunctata  would result in increased diagnosis of food poisoning by  K. septempunctata , if the latter was one of the causal agents of acute food poisoning. The aim was to evaluate the relationship between the shipping amount of olive flounder aquacultured from Jejudo and the incidence of  K. septempunctata  food poisoning in 2015, Korea.    METHODS  Data of shipping amounts between March 2014 and February 2016 and of monthly reported events of  Kudoa  food poisoning were taken from Jejudo Fish-Culture Fisheries Cooperatives and Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, respectively. Non-parametric correlation analyses were conducted.    RESULTS  Shipping amounts indicated the seasonal changes according to variation of consumption. Spearman’s rho and Kendall’s tau-a between the monthly shipping amounts and the reported events in 2015 were 0.39 (p=0.21) and 0.27 (p=0.20), respectively.    CONCLUSIONS  An independent relationship was noted between the shipping amount and the reported events, which contrasted with the claim that the virulence of  K. septempunctata  caused acute food poisoning.
