The kidneys fail first. Then the central nervous system begins to misfire. Paralysis spreads, making breathing difficult, then often impossible without assistance. In the end, most victims die.
Many of them are children, poisoned at the hands of their unsuspecting parents.
The syrupy poison, diethylene glycol, is an indispensable part of the modern world, an industrial solvent and prime ingredient in antifreeze.
It is also a killer. And the deaths, if not intentional, are often no accident.

This is awful!
Great point. It’s very frustrating.
I wish I could read the article.
Treachery.
They’ve probably sold their souls, too.
If I can get a password from bugmenot.com I will try and post the article—give me a few minutes.
It turns out I don’t need a password, but the article is 7 pages long—too long to post here. You can’t access it?
Oh, I just tried clicking on the other link above and now I can see it. Thanks!
This is absolute insanity that we buy ingestible goods from this country.
Isn’t that the truth. This is so frightening.
IN CHINA At least 18 people, most of them in Guangdong Province, died in a month last year after they ingested contaminated medicine.
I think this is related, the WHO did trace SARs back there after the AIDs outbreak:
Unit 731 - Research and Bump List. Gets Disturbing, Read at Your Own Risk
A group of people with HIV urged the government Wednesday to protect the rights of patients diagnosed with severe acute respiratory syndrome.
The group, members of which contracted the AIDS virus in the 1980s from tainted blood products,, said it is concerned that public fears over SARS, which is spreading worldwide but has yet to be confirmed in Japan, will spark discrimination against sufferers.
The hemophiliacs, the next of kin of patients who have died and their supporters made a written request to the Health, Labor and Welfare Ministry on the matter.
They said they have suffered not only HIV/AIDS from the contaminated blood products but also social prejudice and discrimination.
They urged the ministry to ensure that local governments and medical institutions respect the rights of SARS patients and be prepared to accept them or offer advice, according to the request.
They also called for a careful examination of the seriousness and infectious power of the disease now that the ministry has newly designated SARS as an infectious disease for the first time under a law authorizing it to forcibly hospitalize patients.
The victims contracted HIV mainly from the now-defunct Green Cross Corp. blood products and, in a series of cases since 1989, sued the government over its failure to prevent the disaster.
Japan visit postponed
SHIZUOKA (Kyodo) The mayor of Zhuhai in China's Guangdong Province has postponed his visit to Japan due to the spread of severe acute respiratory syndrome in the region, officials said Wednesday.
Mayor Wang Shunsheng and his entourage had been slated to arrive in Japan on Monday to participate in a cultural exchange with the city of Atami, Shizuoka Prefecture. They informed Atami on Friday they wanted to postpone the trip, the officials said.
Wang and his group were to visit Atami on Thursday after making a tour of businesses in Tokyo.
The group had planned sightseeing trips, including to Kyoto, before returning home Monday.
Last week, the World Health Organization issued a rare advisory urging travelers to avoid Guangdong and Hong Kong due to the SARS epidemic.

Hmmmm. was the Chinese SARS outbreak actually posioning, or did poisoning lower the resistance to SARS? I suppose we’ll never actually know.
Would like to read the Blood Trail series, but none of the links worked. Is there another way to get to the stories?
As a side note I wonder how many folks out there, especially those who’s insurance has you using a mail service for your prescriptions realize their meds are made in India.
I was recently shocked to look up the name of the drug company supplying my husbands cholesterol medicine, India.
Yet we have our government warning us not to buy drugs from Canada or online. What makes the difference if we are going to allow third world countries to produce our generic drugs?
As for China messing with our food and drug supplies I find it very frightening.
Back in 2001, my local paper did a large spread on genetic experiments and the Guangdong Providence. They had pictures of the villages with children left orphans because one of the ways to make money was to sell blood.
The online archives for our papers are only 2 weeks.
I’ve gone to the library to try to find that article in microfilm and have not been able to find it, yet.
It is truly sad that most people don’t even know that any of this is going on. They have not clue, and they fully trust that our government will keep them safe. A few print reporters think it is important enough to report on the dangers of trading with China. Stories trickle out here and there on the internet, and you can find them if you look for them, but our media doesn’t seem to think any of this is important at all. They would rather talk non-stop about Paris Hilton, Brittany Spears, Alec Baldwin, and Anna Nicole Smith.
The links are dead? Let me check.
