Some of you might be aware of an outbreak of a virus in China's Anhui Province called the enterovirus 71 (AV 71). Apparently there is an outbreak of it there. Below are links you can read about what has been found. Hannah Mei is not in this province--nor is she near it. However, several families traveling in our group will pick up children there. Please pray for them and also for the health of all families as we travel. We'll all meet up during the final week in Guangzhou. The virus seems to be accompanied by brain swelling and high fevers. 20 deaths of children have been recorded.
