About 6,000 Chinese babies are hospitalized with kidney problems from milk powder with the chemical melamine. melamine is a chemical used to make plastic, which can cause kidney stones. Melamine has already killed six babes that were in serious conditions. Melamine was blamed with powder milk causing the death of four infants. also caused 54,00 other children to have the same thing. An 8-year-old boy was hospitalized after being diagnosed with a stone in his right kidney. the boy had been drinking milk produced by the Chinese dairy for about 5 years. the milk scandal has effected global trade with china. 30 countries are restricting Chinese dairy products and some countries are avoiding all Chinese food imports. China decided to return the milk on the shelves on Wednesday, but other countries such as U.S., Europe and Asia have decided not make a test and found that it still contained melamine. China is trying to restore the trust of Taiwanese consumers. I think it is really bad that china is putting it back on the shelf and trying to sell it while it still has melamine. melamine has all ready cause death and could always cause death to other infants.
