MBG Watch: Siswa Korban Keracunan MBG di SMAN 1 Lasem Rembang Trauma
Tim MBG Watch menjenguk siswa SMAN 1 Lasem Rembang yang masih dirawat inap akibat dugaan keracunan Makan Bergizi Gratis (MBG), di mana total korban mencapai 777 orang (752 siswa dan sisanya guru). Siswa mengaku trauma dan memilih membawa bekal dari rumah atau memeriksa makanan terlebih dahulu sebelum mengonsumsi MBG kembali, dengan menegaskan bahwa kejadian ini merupakan konsekuensi nyata dari kelalaian tata kelola program MBG. Beberapa orang tua bahkan meminta evaluasi total, termasuk opsi penggantian dengan bantuan uang jajan, sementara biaya pengobatan ditanggung oleh SPPG.
