SARS coverup. 

If I were in charge of China, I would put this Dr. Jiang Yanyong in charge of the health ministry :

Meanwhile, the accusations of a Chinese government coverup came in a statement by Dr. Jiang Yanyong, retired chief of surgery for a Beijing military hospital. He said doctors and nurses at two other military-run institutions told him at least seven deaths have occurred in their hospitals and claimed there were 106 cases of the disease in Beijing — more than five times the figure announced by authorities.

Health workers dismissed as "nonsense" claims by the health minister that the outbreak was under control, said Dr. Jiang, 72, who continues to see patients at the No. 301 hospital after retiring as its chief surgeon.

He said he has not been contacted by authorities about his claims.

Instead, he will probably be thrown in a dungeon.  Why do we send so much trade their way?
