China halts Ecuadorian aquatic products over coronavirus contamination
China's customs authority on Saturday took emergency preventive measures against imports of aquatic products from an Ecuadorian firm after sample inspections revealed coronavirus contamination.
Customs offices nationwide will suspend the importation of aquatic products manufactured by FIREXPA S.A., after an inner packaging sample from a shipment of frozen Ecuadorian pomfret tested positive for novel coronavirus, said the General Administration of Customs in a statement.
The suspension will be effective for a week, according to the statement.
