Meanwhile, students from Imus Institute of Science and Technology also suffered the same illness earlier yesterday.
Based on a report from ABS-CBN News, 35 students from Cavite have been suffering from abdominal pains and vomiting for two days now.
The high school students claimed that the iced tea they drank might be the culprit of their illness. Authorities said 15 of them were immediately brought to the school clinic.
