The alarm was triggered around 3.30 p.m., when the first symptoms were reported, due to mushrooms eaten during lunch. They had been brought to the kitchen by a confrere, and used by the cooks to make a risotto.
Five ambulances and a van of the fire brigade were necessary to bring the intoxicated religious to different hospitals in the region.
Among the poisoned was the director of Nigrizia magazine, Father Efrem Tresoldi, who experienced the first symptoms after boarding a train bound for Rome in order to participate at the closure of the Amazon Synod.
