HCM CITY — A six-year-old girl has died after reportedly eating mooncake given during a Mid-Autumn Festival event.
The girl was said to have consumed the mooncake at the event organised by the Palm Heights – Palm City apartment complex in Thủ Đức City last Friday.
A day later, she vomited and was rushed to Lê Văn Thịnh Hospital.
On Saturday afternoon, she was diagnosed with an intestinal infection. The doctor prescribed antibiotics, pain relievers, and digestive enzymes and sent her home.
At 二pm the same day, she did not feel well, with her lips turning purple and was taken back to the hospital for emergency treatment.
The girl fell into a coma and stopped breathing. Doctors tried to provide emergency treatment but were unsuccessful.
On Saturday, five other children who ate cakes from the Mid-Autumn Festival also had symptoms of diarrhoea, vomiting and fever.
More residents reported children with the same symptoms on Sunday morning.
