Chinese scientists use nanorobot to strangle tumors Chinese scientists have folded DNA molecules* in an origami*-like process to make a nano* “Trojan horse*,” or nanorobot*, which is thinner than 1/4,000 of a hair and can release “killers” to fight cancer tumors. Once released, the “Trojan horse” can attract platelets* and fibrinogen protein* to form a large clot in the blood vessel within hours to cut off the blood supply and “starve” the tumor to death. ‘Almighty God’ cult members stand trial Leading members of a branch of the “Almighty God” cult* in Northeast China stood trial in Daqing, Heilongjiang Province, on July 31.

Follow-up plan for defective vaccine recipients A follow-up inoculation* plan was issued on Tuesday by the National Health Commission (NHC) and the State Drug Administration for people who have received rabies* vaccines* from Changchun Changsheng Bio-tech Co.
