According to a report from the Cao Lanh City Medical Center, at around 3 p.m. on April 6, 33 students, teachers and university students had symptoms of abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea after attending the event. Among them were: 13 students from Tran Dai Nghia High School (Dong Thap); 2 students from Tra On High School (Vinh Long); 6 students from An Lac Thon High School ( Soc Trang ); 1 teacher from Nguyen Quang Dieu High School for the Gifted (Dong Thap); 6 student volunteers; and 1 official from Dong Thap University.
Up to now, mild cases have been discharged from the hospital and are being monitored at home, while the remaining 13 cases are continuing to be treated at Dong Thap General Hospital. Fortunately, none of the cases have progressed to a serious condition.
Previously, the STEM Education Festival event was held on April 6 at Dong Thap University, attracting more than 4,000 students and teachers from 70 high schools in six provinces and cities: Can Tho, Hau Giang , Soc Trang, An Giang, Vinh Long and Dong Thap.
Through epidemiological investigation, the students had lunch from about 10:30 to 12:00, with meals provided by a food business in Ward 1, Cao Lanh City. In addition, the participants also used bottled water with the brands D. (330ml), L. (500ml), R. (500ml), canned fresh milk D. (180ml, expiry date until August 2025), and milk tea prepared on site by a university for free. However, the ingredients used to make the milk tea were used up and the specific origin is unknown.
"Currently, the authorities are continuing to investigate the cause of the incident and taking food and water samples for testing," said Mr. Buu.
