Ras Al Khaimah: Hospitals and medical centres recorded 20 food poisoning cases during the Eid Al Fitr holidays.
Doctors said majority of these cases were given first aid treatment and discharged. None of the cases were serious, they added.
The patients complained of high temperature and diarrhoea.
Municipal officials said they had not received any complaints from the public regarding food served in restaurants. Public health inspectors have been working round the clock during the Eid Al Fitr holidays and none of the restaurants violated the hygiene rules, they said.
Residents said most of them ate out during the holidays.
Doctors said the age of the patients was between 12 and 20 years. Residents said they had given "Eidia" to their children and they may have used it to buy fast food.
