As a special condition, city health and epidemic prevention departments Hui testing, the results rejected the hospital's diagnostic conclusions. However, the hospital has contacted more than a dozen of the Hui villagers had blood tests. Hui after discharge, to the city health department inspection, the conclusion once again rejected Hui for the AIDS virus. As the "Hui people with AIDS," the news spread widely in the community, resulting in Zhang Huisi like a heavy burden, can not maintain normal workers. I ask, Hui was the hospital misdiagnosed as AIDS, can ask for compensation?
