International salmon processor Milarex is expecting a decrease in processing capacity after the Polish government shut down schools, universities, kindergartens and mass events as the coronavirus outbreak intensifies.

"Processing capacity will go down since some parents will have to stay at home and take care of the kids instead of coming to work," CEO Thomas Farstad told IntraFish.

Following US President Donald Trumps decision to ban travel from Europe to the United States, the repercussions may heighten.
