Re: SARSblogs - DocBear's is my favorite - his country roundup using ordinary news sources like Reuters and reports on message boards by health care workers paints a less positive picture than WHO does. The statistics for Taiwan are really scary. South Korea is refusing to report to WHO that it has cases but South Korean newspaper says it does.

I also like SARSwatch, which also gives comprehensive in depth news.
sarswatch.org

The slice of life ones, like Dr. Jen Jen, are good because we all like the personal point of view.

It seems like the feeding chain for SARS stories starts with rumor, moves to anecdote, then up the chain to newsgroup and blog and finally to mainstream news outlets.
