There are suspicions that they contracted the bacterial toxin
during a barbecue last Sun 11 Feb 2019, after eating a mayonnaise
prepared with green maize.
4 patients hospitalized in the ICU were already medicated
with the botulism antitoxin. The 5th patient is still awaiting the
arrival of the drug.
