Daily snapshot data starts accumulating once the scheduler runs — for now this is interpolated from the agency's first/last dates.

What is this? Some frozen meat products from Brazil and Italy may not have clear records showing where they came from or how they were handled.

What's happening? Slovakia found a problem with how these frozen meats were tracked. This makes it hard to know if they are safe.

Does this affect me? If you live in Slovakia or the Czech Republic and bought frozen meat from Brazil or Italy, this might affect you.

What should I do? Do not eat the meat if you are unsure. Ask your doctor or pharmacist for advice before eating it.
