Singapore – 60 people fall ill after mass food poisoning incident at ByteDance office; SFA, MOH investigating
SINGAPORE: Authorities are investigating dozens of cases of gastroenteritis reported at TikTok owner ByteDance’s Singapore office at One Raffles Quay on Tuesday (Jul 30).
Sixty people developed symptoms of gastroenteritis and 57 of them sought medical treatment at hospitals, the Singapore Food Agency (SFA) and the Ministry of Health (MOH) said in a joint statement on Tuesday night.
A buffet section at the canteen will be closed until investigations are complete, the company said.
