The consumption of fried chicken with rice in a school caused a massive large-scale operation for the rescue parties in Burgenlands capital Eisenstadt.

It’s supposed that salmonellae in the chicken put 150 pupils out of action. About 80 of them were so sick they had to lay down on the floor. The rescue teams of the red cross had to build a casualty clearing station. Even rescue helicopters were brought into action.

Most of the sick pupils suffered on diarrhea, nausea and circulatory disturbances. 35 patients were serious affected.
