There may be a virus over there in China... that is a factor too:

Quote:
Acute motor axonal neuropathy (AMAN),[16] also known as Chinese paralytic syndrome, attacks motor nodes of Ranvier and is prevalent in China and Mexico. It is probably due to an auto-immune response directed against the axoplasm of peripheral nerves. The disease may be seasonal and recovery can be rapid. Anti-GD1a antibodies[17] are present. Anti-GD3 antibodies are found more frequently in AMAN.
