Trauma of bacteria attack still felt today

Xu Bingcui, 84, is the only victim that was diagnosed with glanders in Lishui. After Japanese troops withdrew from Lishui in 1944, Xu's mouth began festering and ended up deformed and her teeth fell out. As a result, she cannot speak clearly and can only eat liquid food. Xu was diagnosed with glanders, a bacteria disease that could harm the health of horses and was used in wars to disrupt troops' transportation. [Photo by Pu Xiaoxu/Beijing Youth Daily via VCG]
