Dozens of Elementary and Middle School Students in Cimahi Suspected of Food Poisoning from MBG

Dozens of elementary and middle school students in Cimahi City had to receive medical treatment because they experienced food poisoning after consuming the Free Nutritious Meal Program (MBG). Based on information from the Cimahi City Health Office, the students began to feel symptoms of nausea and dizziness after eating the MBG menu which was distributed on Wednesday (25/2). The victims began to be referred to several hospitals from the afternoon to the evening. As of Wednesday, at 10:00 p.m., as many as 24 people, including teachers, had to undergo treatment at several hospitals in Cimahi. “The victims who were treated included 20 people at Cibabat Hospital, 3 people at Mitra Kasih Hospital, and 1 person at Dustira Hospital,” said the Deputy Mayor of Cimahi, Adhitia Yudisthira at Cibabat Hospital. The victims came from several schools that received MBG, including PGRI Kindergarten, Kartika Kindergarten, Cimahi Mandiri 4 Elementary School, Karangmekar 5 Elementary School, and Cimahi 6 Middle School. Although the number of victims has not increased, the Cimahi City Government has established a response post at Cibabat Hospital to anticipate the possibility of a surge in patients. “We agreed to open a post at Cibahat Hospital. If there is a buildup of patients, we will distribute them to other hospitals. But thank God, so far it has been manageable. Some patients are coming in and some have been allowed to go home,” he said. Adhitia explained that the MBG package, which is suspected of causing the poisoning, was distributed to schools on Wednesday morning. To prevent further victims, he instructed that the packages that had not been consumed should not be eaten during the breaking of the fast. The MBG menu received by students included onigiri or rice balls, boiled eggs, apples, dates, and pure milk. The time of consumption also varied, from 11:00 a.m., 3:00 p.m., to around 5:00 p.m. “After receiving information about the suspected food poisoning, we immediately instructed the schools not to consume the package anymore,” he said. One of the victims, Erika Tika Sari, a teacher at Karangmekar Mandiri 1 Elementary School, said she experienced dizziness, nausea, and vomiting after consuming the MBG. She ate the menu at noon because she was not fasting. “After school, I tried to eat the onigiri, but it tasted strange, like it had a burnt smell,” she said. Shortly after, she began to feel nauseous and vomited with dizziness after waking up. At first, she thought it was just a cold. But after receiving information via WhatsApp that many people were experiencing similar symptoms, she immediately went to the emergency room. “I was immediately taken to the emergency room at Cibabat Hospital. Now I’m feeling a little better after being given an IV,” she said. The Cianjur Police and Pagelaran Police are starting to renovate the house of Grandma Encih.
