recently, red tides occurred in some southern waters. When red tides occur, a large red spectacle is often formed on the ocean or lake, which is the sudden proliferation or high accumulation of bacteria, protozoa and phytozoktons in the water under certain environmental conditions, which causes the water to change color. On June 8, the official website of Fujian Ocean Forecasting Station published the "Fujian coastal red tide occurrence conditions forecast (No. 41 of 2017)" shows that, according to fujian Province red tide disaster monitoring and monitoring network report, June 6, Quanzhou Shishi City, Meilin Pier near the sea (located in the early warning area VII. area) found red tide, an area of about 2 square kilometers, red tide body is dark red, a flaky distribution.
, the first advantage of red tide organisms is the chain-shaped algae, which can produce paralytic shell venom.

Once a person eats shellfish containing this toxin, it can cause neuromuscular paralysis in the human body, light people appear numbness and tingling, muscle paralysis in the limbs and other symptoms, heavy can lead to respiratory muscle paralysis and death.
