Japan suspends sale of sea fish with excessive radiation

On February 8, local time, the Japanese government instructed Fukushima Prefecture to suspend the sale of the flat scorpion fish caught by Xu’s off the coast of Fukushima Prefecture because the fish was detected with excessive radiation
.

According to the news released by the Ministry of Health, the test results of Japan Labor and Welfare on the 8th and 7th showed that the activity of the radioactive cesium scorpionfish caught 1,400 becquerels per kilogram of Fukushima Prefecture and reached the coast, far exceeding 100 becquerels per kilogram.

The Japanese government's Atomic Energy Disaster Response Headquarters instructed Fukushima Prefecture on the 8th to suspend the listing and sale of scorpion fish caught in the offshore waters of Fukushima Prefecture in accordance with the country's "Atomic Energy Disaster Response Special Measures Act"
.

According to a recent report by Kyodo News, the Japanese government suspended the listing and sale of as many as 44 types of seafood in the waters off Fukushima Prefecture following the accident at the Tokyo Electric Power Company’s Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant
.

The "3.
11" earthquake in 2011 led to the collapse of the core of the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant, the leakage of radioactive material, the continuous cooling of the core, the inflow of rainwater and groundwater into the reactor facility, resulting in a large amount of nuclear sewage, which is constantly increasing
.

In April last year, the Japanese government decided to discharge millions of tons of nuclear sewage from the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant into the sea after filtering and diluting it
.

Discharge from the hospital began about two years later
