BEIJING, March 10 (Xinhua) -- Following are some quotes on aiding patients with serious illness from Xie Ru, a political advisor and vice governor of China's eastern Jiangxi Province, at the annual session of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference National Committee on Saturday:

-- China should pool both government and social resources to establish a mechanism that provide financial support or low-cost medical treatment for patients with serious diseases.
