Against Damnification

Yeh, I know that wacky translations are old stuff, but I must share the following encomium for the Huan Qui special electronic wave heat lamp:

It has been scientifically demonstrated to have physical therapy function such as closely parenchyma damnification, onitis, pelvic infection, strain of Lumbar muscles, rheumatic arthritis, wound iffection, diarrhea.

Ha! You may laugh, but “parenchyma damnification” gets 30 Google hits (31 now, I guess). It’s apparently a specialty at Dalian Municipal No.5 People's Hospital (link), “the first hospital in Northeastern China which established solicitude wards for people on their deathbed.”
