Health Minister uses SARS as a stick to beat provincial health system into line. It would give a nice headline on a newspaper.

I am not assuming much. All over the world health systems are de-centralized. It is responsibility of the health authority -at municipality level- to report to the state or provincial government, which in its turn, reports to the health authority at the national, from there all the way to the level of WHO.

Which was what failed in China. The party man didn't report the right figures not to look bad under the light of the central government.

As you can SARS has some political uses as the case of Canada shows. Hence take the seriousness of SARS with a grain of salt.
