Manila Bulletin
|August 04 2025
An initial Department of Health (DOH) toxicology report found out that a type of pesticide known as cypermethrin caused the massive fainting of around 300 students in Antique province last month.
“There was sufficient evidence of environmental contamination by cypermethrin within the school premises, most likely due to airborne pesticide drift compounded by weather conditions,” said Mayor Gian Carlo Occeña of Sibalom town in a statement.
