On Tuesday afternoon, the Camden City School District issued a statement on social media that a "possible contamination of milk" broke out amongst the district's Early Childhood Development Center.
The Camden City School District later found out that the sanitizer-spilled milk may have affected more than just a couple of children at the Early Childhood Development Center.
Clearly the sanitized milk was shipped out before anyone could notice. According to CBS3, more 32 children, across 4 schools were sent to neighboring hospitals in the area. Children from the ages of 3 to 5 years were immediately taken to Virtua Our Lady of Lourdes and Cooper Medical Center for any signs of harm. Luckily for everyone involved the antiseptic smelling substance within the milk is non-toxic. Camden county officials have assured that not a single child has been poisoned by the milk.
Camden County Health Officer Paschal Nwako spoke about the "scary situation" at hand.
This was a scary situation but thankfully, everyone who was exposed to the milk is in stable condition and either back at school or home.
This investigation is ongoing, and our department will get to the bottom of this situation.
Camden County has confirmed that the particular brand of milk will not served to any of the district's 20 schools, which houses more than 5,200 students, until the investigation is completed.
What do you think of this mistake from the un-named milk company?
