China suspends imports from Ecuadorian company after coronavirus found on seafood packaging

China suspended imports from FIREXPA S.A., an Ecuadorian seafood product manufacturer after the novel coronavirus was found on the packaging of a batch of imported frozen fish.

Chinese customs have said they will suspend imports from companies for a week if frozen food products tested positive for coronavirus and for a month if a supplier’s products tested positive for a third time or more.
