Marburg virus kills 25%, Ebola up to 90%.
Mortality isn't the most important variable.
4000 people have caught this--most in China.
If this were the flu, a million people would
have had it by now.

It seems to me that if China contains this in
the next few weeks, SARS is over. Additional
outbreaks will be quickly identified and
contained.

Every thread should have an optimist.

(increase the count)
Now, if the Chinese count leaps suddenly,
to tens of thousands, then I will be worried.
