SEOUL, May 11 (Yonhap) -- South Korea will maintain its tightened quarantine inspections regime on U.S. beef but take no steps to halt imports despite the recent discovery of a mad cow case in the United States, the farm ministry said Friday.
The Ministry for Food, Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries said a nine-person inspection team that checked various cattle and meat packing facilities in the United States concluded there is no real human health threat posed by American beef.
