Jiang Hongcai, 81, looks at his rotten legs helplessly in Jinhua,
east China's Zhejiang Province July 5, 2005. His legs began to rot after an
anthrax and farcy infection due to the germ warfare by the invading
Japanese during the World War II. Jiang is one of the surviving victims of the
Japanese germ-warfare. Starting from October 1940, Japanese troops launched an
extensive germ-warfare in China, spreading bacterium of plague, cholera, typhoid
fever, anthrax and glanders in Jinhua and Quzhou of Zhejiang, killing more than
60,000 Chinese. Many survivors have been wrecked by the toadstool to this day.
