KEDIRI - Kediri Regency Hospital (RSKK), East Java, handled approximately 127 patients suspected of having been poisoned with symptoms of nausea and vomiting simultaneously.

This incident occurred after they consumed snacks shared by the committee from an event in Krecek Village, Badas District, Kediri Regency.

He explained that patients experience almost the same symptoms as nausea, vomiting. Some patients also experience diarrhea. Their condition is weak so they must be given treatment.

The patients were immediately given medicine after collecting data by officers. The majority of them are in better condition so that outpatients can be treated.

"For those eight patients who are still being treated, their current condition has improved, they just need to worry. It is possible that tomorrow or the day after tomorrow they can go home," he said.

For the treatment of patients suspected of being poisoned, it has also been through BPJS Kesehatan, so they don't have any fees. In addition, this incident is extraordinary, so as soon as possible you must get medical services from the hospital.
