local.seafdecaqd.extractThe Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources (BFAR) has warned against eating of shellfish after sampling of 16 coastal waters in the Visayas and some parts of Davao region showed positive for red tide toxin, or paralytic shellfish poison that is beyond the regulatory limit. The agency said all types of shellfish and acetes or alamang gathered and collected from the affected areas are not safe for human consumption. BFAR warned the public from catching and consuming shellfish from the coastal waters of Balite Bay in Mati, Davao Oriental; Dauis in Bohol; Daram in Daram Island, Irong-irong Bay; Milagros in Masbate; Cambatutay Bay in Western Samar; Carigara Bay in Leyte; Pilar and Sapian Bay in Capiz; Atlavas, Batan and New Washington in Batan Bay, Aklan; Naval in Biliran Island Province; and Gigantes Island in Carles, Iloilo.en
