China Vaccine Scandal: Activists Protest

CNN reports A group of angry Chinese parents and activists have gathered twice in two days outside government buildings in Beijing to protest a recent scandal over defective vaccines. It marks a rare display of public dissatisfaction in the tightly-policed Chinese capital. The government announced in mid-July they would take disciplinary action over more than 600,000 diphtheria and tetanus vaccines, an unknown number of which may have been administrated to children, sparking massive public anger. More than two dozen protestors gathered outside the offices of the National Health Commission holding signs.
