STOOL samples of at least three children affected by the recent food-poisoning incident at eight preschools have tested positive for the bacteria salmonella.
But the Health Ministry stopped short of pinning down the bacteria as the cause of the mass food poisoning, saying investigations are not yet completed. A spokesman said: 'MOH takes a very serious view of food poisoning cases and follows a strict investigational protocol to determine the actual causes in each outbreak.'
