Oh yes yet another day, and yup another dollar.
Interesting, I just read an article that says that SARS is back. China confirmed two suspected cases of SARS Thursday – one in Beijing and another in the eastern province of Anhui.
On April 7, a 20-year-old nurse was quarantined in Beijing after developing fever and tremors. Five others who had contact with the nurse were put under hospital isolation after they developed fevers. Doctors are monitoring 171 other people who had contact with the nurse, reports the Xinhua new agency.
There are no details on the Anhui case.
These suspected cases are the first to be reported since four people in Guangdong contracted SARS in December and January. They have since recovered.
Severe acute respiratory syndrome killed 800 people around the world in 2003, including 350 in China and 44 in Toronto. SARS caused illness in more than 8,000 people.
During last year's global outbreak, China came under international criticism for withholding information and promised it would be more open in the future.
Makes me wonder what’s next?? Scary world we live in…..
