Regional health authorities were cited as saying on Wednesday that a total of 508 Peruvan school children on Tuesday were poisoned after eating a government-provided breakfast in Huancayo, the capital of the Junin Region in the country's central highlands.
The children, aged between four and 11 years old, suffered from stomachache, vomiting, nausea, dehydration, after eating pasteurized milk and bread on Tuesday.
Around 110 of the children were sent to hospital for treatment and the five most seriously ill were kept in intensive care, authorities said.
