China warns SARS spreaders could face execution
Last Updated Thu, 15 May 2003 11:24:11
BEIJING - China is threatening to execute or impose a life sentence on anyone who breaks quarantine orders and deliberately spreads SARS.

The Supreme Court laid out the punishments in an attempt to prevent SARS from spreading through the countryside, home to many of the country's 1.3 billion people.
The court cited existing laws that include a possible death sentence even for nonviolent offences, although it isn't often imposed.

Some human rights activists say the measure is too extreme.

The illness has killed 271 people in China, including four new deaths on Thursday. Officials in Hong Kong are reporting seven new deaths from SARS.

Here in Taiwan they just fine you something like 400,000 NT$ (about 20k US$)

I think a death sentence or life in prison is pretty over the top, but what do you expect from China's government? They give the death sentence for many things.

Sell drugs in Australia? ok you go to jail for 5 or so years.
Sell drugs in China? ok you die now.

But the death penalty for rape is fully justified. It should be like that everywhere.

Totenkopf and Sclass12, did you two have the same parent? dumb fuck heads, people like you need death.

If you're caught coughing on anyone, you get the death sentence! ed:

Man, for their huge population, I wouldn't blame them.

The country has what 1.2 billion people, thats almost 20% of the world's population. Try finding a better way to control a population that big yourself.
