Current Events - Outbreak risk also in Beijing, more than 1,400 sick

The enterovirus 71 outbreak in China seriously and also risked in Beijing. The disease is very horrible; it can damage many important parts of human body, even to death. They said only children will be infected. There are many children in China have been infected, but their parents don't have much money, and they are worry about the treatment. This news is important to everybody in the world, because Olympic Game will be hold in Beijing soon. Anyone go to Beijing now has to be very careful, because they may bring the virus back to their country.

This news makes me worried, because my roommate's father works in China. And also, my boyfriend's families live there, and they have a six-year-old boy. This news reminds me of SARS, and it was really a hard time during the outbreak of SARS. Olympic Game is also a big problem. In my opinion, the tourists to China might reduce.

Although our medical technologies have been improved to a great level, there are still many diseases that we don't know how to cure. All I can do is pray for those who are living in China and the one who must go there. I wish all the disease disappear soon in the future, so that we can live healthy.
