Another China kindergarten probed over drug scandal
Online Edition
A PRIVATELY owned kindergarten in central China’s Hubei Province became the seventh preschool around the nation embroiled in a scandal over drugs being administered without parental knowledge or permission in a case that has involved nearly 2,000 toddlers.
Parents complained that the Xingang Kindergarten in Yichang City gave the children the prescription medicine moroxydine ABOB. But the kindergarten said children were given only vitamin C and banlangen, a traditional Chinese remedy for the colds, both of which are sold over the counter.
Local authorities have shut down the kindergarten and started questioning its officials. Nearly 200 children, some of which were reported to have nausea, skin itching and abdomenal pains, are being offered free medical checkups, Xinhua news agency reported today.
The scandal has emerged just days after senior officials at two kindergartens in Xi’an were detained for dispensing possible antiviral drugs to students.
