Shellfish warning for Auckland's West Coast
People are being advised not to eat shellfish from most of Auckland's west coast beaches as they contain high levels of a potentially dangerous marine biotoxin.
After conducting tests, Auckland District Health Board says collecting all types of shellfish from the Manukau Harbour north to Muriwai Beach, could cause paralytic shellfish poisoning.
It says symptoms include numbness, difficulties with swallowing or breathing, and in severe cases paralysis.
