AIDS in China

It's been a while since I've posted a Shocking! Outrageous! link.

Conrad over at the Gweilo Diaries discusses the Chinese government's handling of the AIDS problem over there, summarizing with:

The government does nothing constructive because, were it to admit there is a problem, it would run the risk that it would be (correctly) blamed. If history has taught anything, it has taught that, when faced with a choice between admitting fault and killing millions of its citizens, communist governments always choose the latter. [source]
