The numbers are much too low to say much of anything. Superspreaders seemed to be able to affect many. At the Prince of Wales the index case infected over 100 primaries. I believe that everyone who entered his room developed SARS. I don't think that genetics played much of a role - if you were near a superspreader or performed a high risk procedure, you had a good chance of getting SARS. Younger patients did better. There is very little evidence for a genetic component.
