F1 spreading the virus ?
Check this out : http://www.itv-f1.com/news/news_story/14809
Quote:
As most of the F1 circus had been to far east, wasn't it the case of tests and/or quarantine for everyone involved ? This is scaring. A small group of people can contaminate hundreds in a few hours. |

Hopefully the woman involved will recover quickly, and prove not to have SARS. This is a major concern, although probably a case of someone getting over-panicky. Malaysia doesn't seem to be a major problem area, Wurz proved to be fine, and she's probably not been in contact with many Latin Americans while there.

That's a problem I put on the table some days ago: talkin'about international flying, SARS is much more scary to me than terrorist actions linked to Iraqi war

It is almost certain that she has a bacterian infection.
But while it's not a case of panic, it's a case to be watching carefully, because the disease is spreading through many countries, and number of deaths are increasing. For the first time in 10 years, the world health council issued a prohibition to travel to a country, China. |

F1 is a virus in itself, although in 2002 doctors and scientists found the miracle cure that they were looking for, Michael Schmacker, although now apparently there seems to be a new viralent strain of the F1 virus for 2003.

The suspected case of SARS has been declared a false-alarm. Sally Blower, the member of the ITV team affected (btw, she is not a journalist but deals with the logistics), does NOT have SARS; she has a conventional form of pneumonia and is responding well to treatment.
Get well soon Sally! Having had Pneumonia myself some years ago, I can sympathise with her. |
