"A FIVE-month-old baby boy suffering from an eye infection died in hospital in eastern China as the attending doctor was playing a game online, state media has reported, citing health officials.
The ophthalmologist has been stripped of his licence and fired from his post at Nanjing Children's Hospital following the baby's death on Wednesday, the China Daily reported today.

The hospital initially said the doctor, Mao Xiaojun, was working on his thesis when the baby's condition worsened and he subsequently died, but an internal investigation revealed he was in fact playing an online game of Go.

"Mao lied to us a few days ago,'' Li Shandong, director of health care reform in the Jiangsu provincial health department, told the newspaper.

"He admitted to playing the game of Go online after our computer experts checked out evidence on his computer.''

Eleven other hospital employees, including the facility's president and party chief, will be punished over the incident, Xinhua news agency reported, citing investigators, without specifying what the punishment would entail.
More than 10,000 lawsuits relating to medical disputes have been filed in Chinese courts every year since 2002, Xinhua reported."

There it is. Go is great and all but lets not forget about our lives.
