Chinese media have long expressed concerns that sealife might have links to the coronavirus. The first ever Covid-19 outbreak was linked to a live animal and seafood market in the central Chinese city of Wuhan., many of China's outbreaks have been linked to port workers, those handling cold chain goods, or workers at seafood markets.State media said that Covid-19 had been detected on chopping boards used for imported salmon.
