FDA urges removal of Korean seafood products
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The U.S. Food and Drug Administration on Thursday urged the removal of Korean oysters, clams, mussels and some scallops from the market, saying the products may have been exposed to human fecal waste and contaminated with norovirus.
The FDA said the products span the range of fresh, canned and processed seafood including whole and molluscan shellfish including whole and roe-on scallops.
"These products and any products made with them may have been exposed to human fecal waste and are potentially contaminated with norovirus," the U.S. regulatory agency said in a statement.
The FDA issued initial notifications about molluscan shellfish on May 1, prompting some food companies to remove Korean seafood products from their distribution systems. But the agency said other companies have yet to take action.
Officials at the South Korean embassy in Washington had no immediate comment on the FDA announcement.
