Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said Tuesday that federal health authorities are taking a closer look at shrimp being imported into the United States after the Food and Drug Administration issued warnings about potentially radioactive shrimp that were recalled last week.

“We have now increased FDA inspections of shrimp to make sure that Americans are not eating … contaminated shrimp,” Kennedy said at a Cabinet meeting in reference to alerts that were sent out about shrimp that was contaminated with Cesium-137, a radioactive isotope.
