According to initial information, on the evening of September 12, the family of Mr. D.QH, (41 years old, residing in village 10, Ha Linh commune) invited 3 people residing in the same village to their house for dinner. The meal included a dish of stir-fried mushrooms that Mr. D.QH and his wife took while working in the forest.

About 30 minutes after eating, all 5 people vomited, then had stomachaches and diarrhea. Knowing that they were poisoned, Mr. D.QH and his wife, Ms. TTP (37 years old), along with Mr. NVĐ (42 years old), and TVM (44 years old) were taken to Ha Tinh General Hospital for emergency treatment; the remaining person was treated at home.

At the hospital, the patients were promptly examined, given emergency care, and treated according to food poisoning protocols... By the morning of September 13, all four patients were stable and were continuing to be monitored and treated.

Among them, 5 people showed signs of poisoning after eating mushrooms.
