1. Hard to tell.
Most likely not good, but WHO is going to do any reporting???
The entire BP disaster has been kept under wraps.
And it is not only the tuna that spawn in the Gulf.

4. I won't eat seafood anymore
I don't care whether it comes from the Atlantic or the Gulf. I won't eat seafood imported from Asia either because they just dump their poisons in the river and sea.

It's too bad really.

7. government is buying up Gulf seafood for use in military and schools.
One off the stories about it was in Zero hedge:

"Navy Secretary Ray Mabus, who doubles as President Barack Obama’s point man on Gulf Coast oil spill recovery, is pressing America’s armed services to consume as much Gulf seafood as possible.

Navy Capt. Beci Brenton said Monday that Mabus has talked with Secretary of Defense Robert Gates and the secretaries of the Air Force and Army, and his staff has talked to the Defense Commissary Agency, which operates a worldwide chain of stores for military personnel, making the point “that we should be buying Gulf Coast seafood.”
