On Tuesday, about 40 students became ill after eating sandwiches. These were complaints of nausea, stomach pain and vomiting. Meanwhile, the number has already risen to 71.
“Due to the corona measures, we no longer serve hot food at school. As a service to the students, Pegasus has started a collaboration with a local sandwich shop. It is only students who had ordered a sandwich or went to the sandwich shop during the afternoon themselves, who feel ill. Some board members have also contracted food poisoning ”, says Chris Vandecasteele of STROOM, the school group of which Pegasus is a part. “We suspect that the sandwiches are the cause.”
