Mr. Le Xuan Huong - Principal of Thanh Chuong 1 High School said: all the students of the school who were stung by bees and had to be hospitalized have attended school. The "vulture's nest" is still intact on the tree, near the stadium. Before that, the nest was probably broken because people climbed the tree to get honey.
