More than 100 laborers in Abu Dhabi have been hospitalized after suspected food poisoning.
The workers were reported to have eaten bad food at their accommodation camp in Musaffah during Tuesday night, causing them discomfort.
The men were taken to Al Ahalia Hospital in Musaffah on Wednesday in three company buses while others were taken by ambulance. Officials at the hospital told 7DAYS that they started admitting dozens of Asian workers in batches at around 12.30pm due to suspected food poisoning.
“All the workers were admitted at the emergency department. They complained of stomach pains, loose motions, headaches and some felt exhaustion. They were all given treatment,” said an official at the hospital.
