A Chinese state news agency has reported that more than 430 babies have suffered from kidney stones from contaminated milk powder.
The news agency also reported that the dairy that made the milk powder has been ordered to stop production.
Xinhua said Saturday the number of sick babies across the country had risen to 432.
It said the Health Ministry had ordered Sanlu Group Co. to stop production.

In 2004, more than 200 infants suffered malnutrition and at least 12 died after being fed phony formula that contained no nutrients. Some 40 companies were found to be making phony formula and 47 people were arrested.

Yikes.
