The governor of Morbihan issues a decree issued on 31 December 2019 prohibiting the fishing, collection, transfer, shipping and marketing of all shellfish from the zone n°56.09.3. A memo of the French general directorate of food had revealed a number of human Norovirus cases after oysters from this area were consumed.

These were the MYTILIMER “Special hollow oysters of Quiberon N°2”.

The product in question was withdrawn from sale in the stores concerned, but a part of the products had already been sold to consumers.

The Novovirus can cause gastroenteritis in humans, with symptoms such as vomiting and diarrhea. For this reason, Luxembourg’s food safety authorities recommend that consumers no longer consume the following product:
