Dozens of students fall ill after school lunches in Taipei

At least 87 junior high school students at Cheng Yuan High School in Taipei developed vomiting and diarrhea after eating school lunches, followed by at least ten more reporting gastrointestinal symptoms at Dali High School.

The precise cause of the outbreak has not yet been confirmed by health officials.
