Stop Infecting Kids with Hepatitis C!

by: Care2.com

recipient: Gao Pei, Vice Director of the Center for Disease Control

An outbreak of Hepatitis C has swiftly infiltrated the lives of numerous children in China. Unfortunately, these children have been subjected to this disease due to the irresponsible actions of adults they trusted. After thorough investigation, it was found that doctors and nurses at a private clinic in Henan province's Maqiao township were reusing needles when giving shots to patients.



So far there have been no moves to reprimand the clinic and those who work there. Reusing needles is one of the most unsanitary practices you could do in a hospital. It was extremely irresponsible and frankly quite senseless for hospital workers to risk endangering the lives of so many people.



The actions displayed by this clinic prove that it is not safe for people to be treated there. Those who work there also need to take responsibility for their thoughtless and harmful actions. Urge the Chinese Center of Disease Control to shut down this clinic immediately!

The Miaoqian Clinic in Henan linked to an outbreak of Hepatitis B must be shut down immediately. No one is safe in a clinic that is more likely to get someone sick, than to help them get better.



This clinic has been found to be re-using needles, which has led to the spread of Hepatitis C in Anhui, a neighboring province of Henan. This practice has absolutely no place in a health clinic. The clinic, as well as the perpetrators need to take accountability for their careless actions and be disciplined immediately.
