Public Health Inspectors will be visiting restaurants, hotels/ guesthouses, supermarkets, and other food premises to conduct inspections, and seize and destroy contaminated food items.

The Ministry of Health in a media release appealed to all persons handling food to do the following:

1. Do not use, sell, or distribute any food item, including bottled water, that has been in contact with floodwaters.

2. Food items delivered by suppliers on or after Saturday 20th October, 2018 should be stored separately from stock previously on hand. You should inspect these delivered goods for wet labels/ packaging, and residue such as mud or silt, and stains. 

For further instructions on how to manage items that may have been in contact with flood waters, you can visit the Ministry of Health's website: www.health.gov.tt
