Hundreds arrested in China’s criminal vaccine scandal

‘The list of Chinese food and medicine disasters continues to grow, this time involving the illegal sale of vaccines.
As reported by Chinese press recently, more than two dozen additional suspects have been arrested by authorities, after hundreds of others have already been placed under investigation for suspicion of accepting bribes (which is a common practice in China), abusing their power and negligence.
The scandal, which was first uncovered in March, has reportedly shocked the public.
Chinese justice officials say their main suspect is Pang Hongwei, a one-time pharmacist at a hospital in Shandong, and her 21-year-old daughter.
