Sars

[idolistic_dream]

Is it just in Toronto, or is it breaking out all over?
If you have no fucking clue what I'm talking about -> scary pnemonia-like thing from Hong Kong that's killing people. No cure yet, cuz they dunno if it's a virus or a bacteria - i.e. can't treat it.
They've got 24hr walk in clinics set up for it, and they're being crazy tight in hospitals allowing visitors in.
its freaky shit

Although no treatment for SARS is known to work, most patients seem to get better with normal hospital care. About 10 percent fare badly, but many of those have other illnesses that complicate their care, such as diabetes or heart disease.
