In an article by Carson Kessler, Fortune gives news of the application of the Blockchain to healthcare. In China, a vaccine scandal is underway. On July 15th, the State Drug Administration (SDA) announced a pharmaceutical company falsified approximately 113.000 doses of human rabies vaccine and ordered stopping of production. Later it was discovered other vaccines put on the market by the same manufacturer did not meet the standards. A Chinese blogger reported the matter online, but Chinese government canceled the post a few hours later. The Internet users came to the Blockchain, where an article was published containing all the data of the story. Even in the past this technology had proven to be able to oppose the censorship: past April, a student published a letter denouncing the threats suffered in a case of sexual violence. The script was removed from the internet but, thanks to the Ethereum Blockchain, it is still avaible.
