Thanks for your reply, and for the resteem. Here's hoping the publicity I'm seeking doesn't come around to bite me in the proverbial @$$. It's great to hear feedback.

As for the name, it's intentionally incorrect though it's a bit of a moot point. If the censors in China actually considered my article a threat, it would not be hard to look up who is the only foreign patient admitted to the 306th recently and find me. The obvious option was to not name the hospital, but I have another problem: the less information I provide, the easier it is for one of China's "Fifty Cent Party" to claim the story is a "Western fabrication to defame China," which is the standard catch-all description for any article that dares speak ill of China.

Essentially, the only thing that has kept me from already ending up in front of a firing squad is that China's censors are typically too busy going after media outlets in Mandarin, which are far more dangerous to them since that's the language the rank and file can understand. Media in English is a secondary priority because anything that can't be understood by the majority of their population is less dangerous to them. Also, Steemit has not been on their radar until recently, though that may change soon as I discovered I now need a VPN to access Steemit (which was not the case prior to the NPPCC conference in March), which means it has been added to the vast sea of blocked websites in China.
