There are 1.1 billion Chinese. How many died of SARS?

There are 6 billion people on Earth how many died of SARS?

Just to put it o the right perspective.

Yeah, I rmemeber back in 1986 when the earth's population was going to vanish due to AIDS. I sat down with a friend and we reasoned;

We're no drs. You only can attack the body through holes on it. Hence, the sickness would be localized among a very select group.

We singled out only two group of people who would die in droves until they become more careful. Homosexuals and intravenous drug users.

All other cases beyond those two groups would be accidental and a few careful steps would avoid. We were no wrong.

But there are many homossexuals in high profile and visible activites: Rock Hudson and a few musicians and the scare was blown beyond prportions.
