Ba Vi Mountain Milk and baseless speculations and assumptions

The information that has received special attention from the public in recent days is the product quality of Nui Tan Ba ​​Vi Milk Joint Stock Company (Ba Vi district, Hanoi).

The reason why the quality of Nui Tan Ba ​​Vi Milk products is of public concern is because of unverified and questionable information about some students at schools in Hoai Duc and Dan Phuong districts (Hanoi) who, after using this brand of product, suffered from poisoning, diarrhea, and had to be hospitalized.

While this brand is occupying a large market share in Hoai Duc and Dan Phuong districts, providing main meals and snacks for students of dozens of schools in the two localities.

And so, questionable information spread uncontrollably on social networks, each person adding "a little fish sauce" and "a little salt". The Tan Ba ​​Vi Mountain Milk brand was considered by some parents to be the reason why many students were poisoned and had to be hospitalized after using it.

But the truth is that recently in Hoai Duc and Dan Phuong localities, no students have been poisoned due to using school milk.

This afternoon, September 25, the People's Committee of Dan Phuong district sent a document to the Press Department, Ministry of Information and Communications, confirming that no students in the locality suffered food poisoning in schools that organized boarding meals.

This means that the suspicion that students were poisoned by using Nui Tan Ba ​​Vi milk products is initially determined to be completely baseless.

Dan Phuong District People's Committee confirmed that no students in the district suffered food poisoning in schools that organized meals for boarding students.

Sharing with reporters of Cong Thuong Newspaper on the same afternoon, Mr. Nguyen Phi Son, Director of Nui Tan Ba ​​Vi Milk Joint Stock Company, expressed his sadness because a young milk brand, which had only been on the market for a short time, had been "buried" by unverified information, causing confusion for parents and schools, seriously affecting the product brand and reputation of the company.

This incident also makes many people recall the "stormy" year of the traditional fish sauce industry in 2016.

At that time, a haphazard study suggested that traditional fish sauce was contaminated with arsenic. And immediately, fish sauce manufacturing businesses were heavily affected as returned orders began to appear, and supermarkets began removing traditional fish sauce products from their shelves.

Fortunately, scientists quickly spoke up to confirm that the arsenic in traditional fish sauce is organic arsenic, not harmful to the health of users.

Returning to the incident that happened to the brand Milk Nui Tan Ba ​​Vi, although no authorities have yet concluded that "students using Milk Nui Tan Ba ​​Vi products were poisoned", but with unverified suspicious information, some cautious schools have temporarily stopped allowing students to use this brand's products, causing considerable damage to the business.

These losses do not only stop at orders and economic losses, but also affect consumers' confidence in product quality.

Currently, the authorities have stepped in to verify and clarify the cause of the incident, clarify the product quality and food safety issues of the Ba Vi Nui Tan Milk brand.

Black and white will be clear in a few days.

But for now, this incident has clearly shown us one thing, which is the haste in receiving information of a large number of social network users.
