There have been frequent rumors about the situation after free nutritious lunches in Taipei City. DPP Taipei City Councilor Jian Shupei broke the news today that 12 teachers and students at Jingxing Elementary School in Wenshan District fell ill after eating nutritious lunches on September 23. The Education Bureau responded that the test results of Xiaojuan were normal and it was initially determined to be Noro or gastrointestinal cold. In response, Shen Boyang, candidate for Taipei mayor of the Democratic Progressive Party, said in an interview that related cases have occurred frequently recently and that only by letting the public know what the problem is as soon as possible can the people feel at ease.

The Taipei City Government has promoted a free nutritious lunch policy. Recently, teachers and students at Jinhua Junior High School, National Elementary School, and Jingxing Elementary School have suffered from diarrhea and physical discomfort, and the lunch items all contain small rolls. The outside world has questioned whether seafood products are suitable for nutritious lunches.

Shen Boyang went to the Normal University Night Market to sweep the streets tonight. In an interview before the meeting, he said that these things have indeed happened more frequently recently. Everyone should pay more attention and be sure to preserve the specimens and send them for examination so that everyone can know what the problem is as soon as possible. People can feel at ease. This is the most important thing.
