Re-used animal feed bags to store ice causes mass diarrhoea outbreak in Rayong

Over 1,400 students and teachers in Rayong were hit by a diarrhoea outbreak linked to ice packed in re-used animal feed bags. The contamination, attributed to norovirus and traces of harmful E.coli strains, affected schools in Klaeng district, with poor water quality and low chlorine levels compounding the issue. Officials found that the implicated ice factory used unsafe packaging practices, despite holding a valid license. Emergency measures include chlorinating school water supplies, halting ice sales from the factory, and improving hygiene protocols. Local authorities aim to restore safety and prevent future incidents.
