A member asked:
My wife is 10 wks pregnant. we were at a nice restaurant and she inadvertently ate a small piece of hamachi sashimi. should we be worried about mercury intake from something that small (half an oz?) she has only had cooked salmon besides that?

There is no risk at all from such a small exposure to mercury. Don't worry about it.
