A mother and daughter have been jailed for selling vaccines without a license in east China’s Shandong Province.
Pang Hongwei was sentenced to 15 years in prison for illegally purchasing vaccines which she stored in warehouses in Jinan and Liaocheng, and then sold to clients between June 2013 and April 2015, according to Jinan Intermediate People’s Court.
The court said the vaccines had been improperly stored and that Pang had earned nearly 75 million yuan (US$11 million).
In 2009, Pang was sentenced to three years in prison with a five-year probationary period for illegally trading vaccines in Heze, another city in Shandong. In April last year the case was retried, as required by the provincial higher people’s court, and her sentence was extended to six years without probation.
