WWBP Receives Positive Response at China Economic Summit 
for its HCV (Hepatitis C Virus) Technology in Beijing

XI'AN, China, /Xinhua-PRNewswire/ - 
Worldwide Biotech & Pharmaceutical Group 
(OTC Bulletin Board: WWBP - News; "WWBP") successfully introduced 
its Chinese Golden Medal patented invention - 
"the Intact Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) and Method 
for Culturing HCV in Vitro by Cell Culture" to conventioneers 
when Ms Wenxia Guo, CEO and President of WWBP, 
attended the China Economic Summit held in Beijing.

As a core part of the 8th China Beijing International High-tech Exposition, 
which is held annually, the China Economic Summit mainly focuses 
on high-tech innovation and China's sustainable economic growth. 
Because high-tech innovation was the main theme of the Summit, 
WWBP seized the opportunity by introducing a leading invention 
for medical technology named, HCV (Hepatitis C Virus), 
and more importantly, by this chance WWBP has won an initial success 
for its recognition and reputation. This Economic Summit has provided 
WWBP with a platform to introduce its achievement in HVC technology 
to all the attendants of the Summit across the world.

In fact, China is harboring a third of all chronic hepatitis B (HBV) 
sufferers and a fourth of chronic hepatitis C (HCV) sufferers, 
120 million and 41 million people respectively. 
With this huge potential market, it is clear that the situation 
WWBP faces is prosperous and but also competitive.

About the China Economic Summit

The China Economic Summit was held at the Great Hall of the People 
in Beijing on May 24, 2005 and, it is a main part 
of the 8th China Beijing International High-tech Exposition.

"Financial Innovation", "Enterprise Governing and China's Economic 
Sustainable Growth." During the summit, a number of famous economists 
and entrepreneurs gave a brilliant debate on key areas. 


About HCV (Hepatitis C Virus) Technology

HCV is a small, enveloped, single-stranded, blood-borne RNA virus 
in the family Flaviviridae. HCV is a major cause of liver disease 
in the United States and the world. WWBP has committed a large amount 
of cash and resources to the development of its cornerstone technology: 
a laboratory method for culturing (growing, propagating) 
intact Hepatitis C Virus. After three years of intensive research, 
the scientists at WWBP achieved a technological breakthrough 
for culturing HCV in vitro, making it the first to overcome 
the main hurdle to HCV research and product development. 
The breakthrough in establishing a cell culture system for HCV production 
and infection by WWBP scientists provides a potentially unlimited source 
for HCV and a comprehensive technology platform upon which the Company 
can be built. From this Rosetta stone, WWBP hopes to development 
new generation HCV diagnostics, new classes of HCV drugs, HCV vaccines 
and to be part of the development of next-generation anti-HCV targeted 
(gene) therapies.
