China Says 1,041 Infants Still Hospitalized with Tainted Milk Problems

Chinese babies are still suffering in the hospital from tainted milk. Xinhua reports: The Ministry of Health said on Thursday that 1,041 infants around China were still receiving hospital treatment for kidney damage caused by tainted powdered milk. One was in serious condition, the ministry said. [...] Another 50,741 infants have recovered and been discharged since mid-September, when a scandal erupted over milk containing a chemical, melamine.

Can you imagine what would happen in any other country if 50,000 infants were hospitalized because of melamine-tainted milk?
