SARS: Good News/Bad News

As a followup to our previous coverage of the SARS outbreak, three schools in Hong Kong have been closed, and they've figured out that a professor visiting Hong Kong from the Chinese mainland was the source of the hotel outbreak, which sickened the first batch of six in Hong Kong. Worldwide, there are 350 cases and six deaths. The good news: vigorous treatment seems to help. Many of the hospitalized patients in Hong Kong are being sent home.

While no cause has been found, the WHO has sent a team to the Guangdong province in China, which borders Hong Kong, to determine a link between SARS and the atypical pneumonia outbreak there last year.
