The team, founded 22 years ago, has won various awards in many domestic Taichi competitions. Now the 13-member team will take part in an upcoming Taichi competition to be held in east China's Jiangxi Province. "I hope our team can get higher score in this year's competition," said team leader Ma Qian, who has practised Taichi for four years. As a college student majored in traditional Chinese medicine, Ma said Taichi is helpful for increasing strength not only in body but also in mind. He hoped more young people can learn about Taichi and take part in it. (Xinhua/Chen Junqing)

Wait, WHAT THE FUDGE??!!
Are they just washing their lab suits? Aren't those supposed to be disposable? Isn't that the whole point of Biosafety level 4 ()??

From wikipedia:


"The Ebola epidemic has caused an increasing demand in protective clothing. It is assumed that a health worker uses seven suits per bed per day. A full set of protective clothing includes a suit, goggles, mask, socks and boots, and an apron. Boots and aprons can be disinfected and reused, but everything else must be destroyed. Health workers change garments frequently, discarding gear that has barely been used. This not only uses a great deal of time but also exposes them to the virus because for health care workers wearing protective clothing, one of the most dangerous times for catching Ebola is while suits are being removed. The protective clothing set that MSF uses cost about $75 apiece. Staff who have returned from deployments to West Africa say the clothing is so heavy that it can be worn for only about 40 minutes at a stretch. A physician working in Sierra Leone has said, "After about 30 or 40 minutes, your goggles have fogged up; your socks are completely drenched in sweat. You're just walking in water in your boots. And at that point, you have to exit for your own safety...Here it takes 20-25 minutes to take off a protective suit and must be done with two trained supervisors who watch every step in a military manner to ensure no mistakes are made, because a slip up can easily occur and of course can be fatal." According to some reports, protective outfits are beginning to be in short supply and manufacturers have started to increase their production, but the need to find better types of suits has also been raised."


I seriously hope this is not the "chinese character" kicking in to gear again, cutting corners to save pennies. They need to destroy those suits instead of washing and re-using them.

To me wiki is not always the best source for information. I only disagree with this statement

"The Ebola epidemic has caused an increasing demand in protective clothing.

Ebola is not yet at an epidemic. It is an outbreak.

“你们家小孩性格好烈哦，买糖也不吃，有人走近就又哭又闹。”面对民警的疑问，吴国莲解释说，家人从小就教育小男孩不能吃陌生人的东西，不能让陌生人抱，更不能跟着陌生人走，所以小男孩才会很抵触陌生人。供图：Mickey Mouse /CFP
