Possible Food Poisoning Outbreak At Univ. of Maryland

80 People Go To Emergency Rooms

LANHAM, Md. -- At least 80 people who were attending a conference at the University of Maryland are being treated for possible food poisoning.

A university spokesman said the patients are young people who were attending a leadership conference at the university this week. They complained of nausea after eating turkey and taco box lunches, and were taken to area hospitals in buses.

About 60 people are being treated at Doctors Community Hospital in Lanham and another 20 are at Washington Adventist Hospital. Hospital officials said some will be held overnight.

It's unclear if the lunches came from the campus dining service or another catering service. The Prince George's County Health Department is investigating.
