An outbreak of gastroenteritis occurred at Fenway Park on April 15th. A total of 204 people went to the emergency departments of the three local hospitals during that evening. No more cases were reported afterward. These patients complained of headache, fever, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. The disease was severe enough in 19 patients to require hospitalization for rehydration. Most likely, this outbreak of gastroenteritis (GE) was caused by the consumption of a contaminated or poisoned meal. The Boston Department of Public Health was called in to investigate.
