The Ministry of Health (MOH) Thursday vowed to punish officials who underreport the H1N1 flu pandemic following criticism from a prominent medical expert who cast doubt on China's official death toll from the disease.
Local officials urged to tell H1N1 truth
Some medical experts have wondered aloud whether the country's H1N1 data matches the reality. They pointed to limitations in medical capacity and the fact that hospitals are not testing everyone with flu symptoms for H1N1 as reasons why the outbreak may have been underreported.
But Zhong Nanshan, a Guangzhou-based doctor famous for his candor in exposing a cover-up of the SARS epidemic in 2003, took concerns a step further, suggesting some local governments had deliberately concealed suspected cases.
If you eliminate the impossible,whatever remains however improbable must be the truth.

Scary! It's like watching the SARS movie once again. It was exactly the same!
1- Nothing to worry about
2- It's all a joke
3- Officials who mess around with data/info would be punished
4- BANG BANG! We had it right at the front door

You mean the fella f-ing Bush?
I believe the guy who's about to go down on Bush is some Italian.
Haha, photoshop? That's pretty funny.

Will foreigners in Beijing be coerced to take the vaccine?
And if they fail to comply,what would the consequences be?
