More than 70 pupils from Kei Road Primary School were rushed to Philani Clinic on Monday following yet another case of suspected food poisoning.
The Eastern Cape Department of Health said the pupils fell sick after eating sheep liver with pap at the school.
This comes as the Eastern Cape departments of health and education struggle to gain control of the diarrhoea outbreak in King William’s Town schools. More than a thousand pupils from 11 schools in the region were treated at three provincial hospitals last week.
