A resident carries a television set from his destroyed home in the earthquake shaken city of Wenchuan, Sichuan province, May 22, 2008. More than 80,000 people are dead or missing from China's worst earthquake in decades, the government said on Thursday, as concerns rose that disease, the rainy season and aftershocks could bring yet more pain.
