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 prawns from Spain may have warmed up too much while being moved. This can let bad germs grow.

What's happening? Spain told other countries that these prawns lost their cold chain. Stores and restaurants may have them.

Does this affect me? If you bought prawns from Spain recently, check the package date.

What should I do? Throw them away or return them. Ask your doctor or pharmacist if you feel sick after eating them.
