haha... it must suck then!!
i wore a mask the first time then a theory popped in my head if chinese places are empty cuz everyone is scared of sars
but white places are getting flocked with everyone wont white places be higher in chances to get sars?
maybe its just me but that is what im thinking?

don't be like this guys. your not going to go to places just becuase of some rumour? yes i know "better be safe than sorry".. if you really wnat to be on the safe side....lock urslef at home till the whole thing is over. everyone you see on the street can be infected by it...white or black. no point of hiding out ... and avoiding chiense places.

95 percent?...are you serious?..that's ok...it is not as bad as I thought then..

Most people who died from SARS are elders who have other diseases (diabetes, heart attack, etc) and they have weaker immunity to fight SARS ...

Well, PMall is empty. I am not worried either. The people are just over reacting. Even though you get it, you can recover. As long as you are aware of it.

7th person died yesterday of SARS. But she was a 57 year old woman. The elderly and the weak are more likely to have worser cases.

out of the 129 probable and suspected SARS cases in Ontario, almost every one of them is traceable to the original cluster of cases that surfaced earlier this month at Scarborough Grace Hospital.

there's a 97% recovery rate
