China's Deadly Secret, 13-minutes, 2008 (Ref: 392)
 
     
China has a deadly secret that it is desperately trying to keep. An AIDS epidemic caused by official mismanagement, greed and corruption has struck at thousands of villages. In the 1990’s government officials encouraged people to sell their blood – in the full knowledge that many of those giving blood were HIV positive. Now millions of people throughout China have been infected with AIDS through blood transfusions. Many people would like to tell what they know... but they aren't allowed to talk to strangers... and strangers aren't allowed to talk to them. The attempt to cover up the scale of the problem might have been successful were it not for the bravery of a few individuals willing to stand up to attempts to shut them up. We reveal China’s Deadly Secret.
