THE Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China Central Committee yesterday held a meeting to hear reports on the investigation of the defective vaccine case involving Changchun Changsheng Life Sciences Ltd.
The meeting was presided over by Xi Jinping, general secretary of the CPC Central Committee, who attaches great attention to the case and has given important instructions over it on multiple occasions. He stressed that those involved in the case should be held accountable and punished severely according to the law.
