Agreed with @Navjot Kaur with the reasoning that catching of shrimps should be also temporarily banned not only for the reason that they may be contaminated as well but also to prevent further decline of the number of shrimps.

As virus has polluted the sea water, so shrimps must have been contaminated too. So, catching them sholud be banned to save people's health.
