Dozens arrested in China vaccine scandal

Police have arrested 37 people in eastern China over a massive vaccine scandal.

The arrests follow last month's arrest of a mother and daughter accused of buying and selling vaccines illegally.

According to BBC News, the roughly $88 million worth of vaccines were not properly refrigerated or transported.

The vaccine ring, said to have been in operation since 2011, allegedly has involved hundreds of people in 20 provinces.

The vaccines have been sold to both illegal agents and legal local disease control and prevention centers at inflated prices.
