Trauma of bacteria attack still felt today
Wang Huatao, 93, is the oldest survivor of bacteria attack in Chongshan village in Yiwu, Zhejiang province. In 1942, Wang's little sister died of plague. Afterwards, he saw a dead mouse with a swollen belly at his home. A few days later, Wang caught fever. Fortunately, he recovered in a temple later. [Photo by Pu Xiaoxu/Beijing Youth Daily via VCG] |
