<So why WHO does not do more? Or whether it could do more?> If SARS were to move at some moment explosively out of Toronto or to start escalating in India for instance i think WHO has the power to request that all airflights in and out of epidemic areas and their borders be closed but the country must fulfill the request.
If a breakout epidemic in Canada occured U.S. could quarantine Canada, close borders, so to speak; but you can imagine the politics in that one--whew. Max
