Ho Chi Minh City health inspectors will meet this week with dairy firm Dutch Lady Vietnam, whose products are suspected of sending five local children to the hospital.

Nguyen Minh Hung, the health department’s chief inspector, also said Wednesday that a team visited the homes of the children for epidemiologic checks and taking milk samples.

However, they could take only one sample of Vivinal GOS milk which the children had minutes before developing symptoms of allergy, as most of the families were not at home or had left no milk behind, he added.

The children, who were admitted to the Children Hospital No.2 from Oct 13-19, have recovered, Hung said.
