Due to this, the public has been advised to avoid consuming mussels or other bivalves such as lokan and lala until the authorities ascertain the cause of the food poisoning. The hot weather is also one of the causes for the algae boom in the waters, but it didn’t affect other marine life such as fish, shrimp, crabs, and more.
