According to press reports, in the first three months of 2025, a series of food poisoning incidents occurred nationwide, causing hundreds of people to be hospitalized. In Ho Chi Minh City, in less than a month, the city had three consecutive suspected cases of mass food poisoning at schools, causing many students to be hospitalized with symptoms of vomiting, stomachache, diarrhea, etc. Given the worrying situation of food poisoning, finding effective and synchronous solutions is an urgent requirement.
Regarding the above reflection, Deputy Prime Minister Le Thanh Long requested the ministries of Health, Agriculture and Environment, Industry and Trade, Culture, Sports and Tourism, and People's Committees of provinces and cities to continue to promote the implementation of the Prime Minister's direction on strengthening food poisoning prevention.
The Ministry of Health has stepped up the supervision and inspection of food poisoning prevention in localities, especially in key areas, large cities, tourist areas, and places with many collective kitchens and food service establishments for workers, students, and tourists.
Provincial and municipal People's Committees shall strengthen inspection, examination and surprise inspection of compliance with food safety regulations in the area, especially at collective canteens, food service establishments, and street food, and strictly handle violations according to regulations.
