My favorite quote

from the same source:

". In Singapore, for example, 60 SARS cases are linked to two wards of Singapore General Hospital. Yesterday the Ministry of Health said the outbreak started with a 90-year-old Chinese woman who passed her infection on to her nursing home attendant. The elderly woman died; the attendant and two other family members are hospitalized. Nearly everyone on the two wards who came within a few feet of the elderly woman later developed the disease."

Now, imagine a strain as contagius as that outbreak, but as deadly as the canadian strain... Then imagine that in India. I know, fear mongering... But perhaps this virus calls for that.
