Workers Continue Search Efforts After Chinese Quake

Rescue workers are continuing their efforts to find missing people after Saturday's 6.6 quake, near Ya'an, China.

One hundred and eighty-four people were killed, nearly twelve thousand, and twenty-four are still missing.

The government has sent eighteen thousand troops to help with rescue efforts, as well as clearing roads of rock slides.

Residents are still considering themselves lucky, as many remember the region's 2007 quake which killed seventy thousand.
