Henry, where do we find the total number of cases so far? And where do we find the total number of deaths?

WHO doesn't seem to be putting much effort into reporting what's going on, or I'm missing the links.

Edit... Aha, found it! who.int
2 February 2005

Country/ Territory Total cases Deaths
Cambodia 1 1
Thailand 17 12
Viet Nam 37 29
Total 55 42

55 cases, 42 deaths = 76% death rate and I suppose as with sars, a couple of those are hanging in the balance and could die. That's 80% death rate. That's about as bad as it gets.

The bug is so vicious that those infected don't go on to infect others by walking down the street. They are dead! And unlike sars, people are dying in a few days [I think that's correct].
