中国政府于本周一郑重宣称，将会彻查最近曝光的涉案金额5.7亿元（折合8800万美元）的问题疫苗丑闻案。

国务院已经成立了一个专门小组，来负责调查自2011年起在全国范围内没能及时组织问题疫苗的监管制度。

The team comprises officials from the China Food and Drug Administration, National Health and Family Planning Commission, Ministry of Public Security, Ministry of Supervision and — most noticeably — the Supreme People's Procuratorate, in addition to a committee of experts.

调查组由中国食品药品监督管理局 、国家卫生计生委、公安部、监察部以及最高检的官员组成，另有专家委员会参与其中。

The team, led by Bi Jingquan, head of the China Food and Drug Administration, will proceed under the supervision of an inspection team led by Ding Xiangyang, deputy secretary-general of the State Council.

该调查组由食品药品监管总局局长毕井泉任组长，并在由国务院副秘书长丁向阳同志任组长的督查组的监督下进行调查。
