To those who have plans of travelling to China, as of this May, the 3 pinays in Canton China are now brain dead, only kept alive through machines. The 3 pinays do not know each other, and went to China on different tour groups. One of them who I know very well being my ninang sa kasal, had no high blood or major health problems when the couple left for China over a month ago. All of sudden, she collapsed. When rushed to the hospital, she had a blood clot, a brain hemorrage, suspected to be caused by a viral infection. Surprisingly, we eventually found out that there were 2 other pinays STILL in China hospital, all with the same diagnosis. Tinanong ko kung bird flu virus, they wouldn't tell. The family is rushing their china visa to be at her bedside before they eventually pull the plug.
