SARASOTA COUNTY – The Florida Department of Health in Sarasota County is reporting elevated levels of red tide along the coast of Sarasota County.
Water samples collected on Monday and reports of respiratory irritation have prompted health officials to place signs at some area beaches from North Jetty to Longboat Key.
The last terrible outbreak of the microorganism that turns the turquoise waters of the Gulf the color of Coca-Cola lasted from October 2017 to February 2019. It killed tens of thousands of sea creatures, including dolphins, sea turtles and manatees.
The algae can be fueled near shore by nutrient pollution associated with urban or agricultural runoff, according to Mote Marine Laboratory.

In a release, the health department said the red tide may cause mild short-term respiratory issues for some individuals, including eye, nose and throat irritation. Individuals with respiratory issues may experience more severe symptoms, but symptoms generally dissipate when an individual leaves the area where red tide is present, the release said.
While red tide is present, the health department recommended against swimming around dead fish. The department advised residents with chronic respiratory issues to consider staying away from the beach and said residents living in beach areas should close their windows and run their air conditioner. Pets and livestock should stay away from water, sea foam and dead sea life, and people should not eat molluscan shellfish or distressed or dead fish from affected waters.
