In a bulletin, BFAR said shellfishes collected at the coastal waters of Dauis and Tagbiliran City in Bohol, Dumanquillas Bay in Zamboanga del Sur, and Lianga Bay in Surigao del Sur were tested positive for paralytic shellfish poison (PSP) above the regulatory limit and not safe for human consumption.

However, fish, squids, shrimp, and crabs are safe to eat if they are fresh, with internal organs and gills removed, and well rinsed before cooking, according to the agency.

Meanwhile, BFAR reported that the coastal waters of Milagros in Masbate and Litalit Bay in Surigao del Norte are now clear of the toxic red tide.
