At least the Chinese don't cave in to the Judeofascists' SARS blackmail.... China Calls for Immediate Halt to War on Iraq BEIJING (Reuters) - China, a permanent member of the U.N. Security Council, called on Thursday for an immediate halt to the U.S.-led war against Iraq and a return to efforts to resolve the crisis peacefully. Foreign Ministry spokesman Kong Quan said the war was a violation of the U.N. charter and international law.

"They ignored the opposition of most countries and peoples of the world and went around the U.N. Security Council to begin military action against Iraq," he said.

More than 250 patients worldwide have suspected infections. At least 10, and possibly as many as 13, have died. While the number of suspected cases in Hong Kong rose to 145 on Wednesday - an overnight increase of 34 patients - the Hong Kong health officials announced that they had traced the infection's route to a single hotel floor. "It is possible this route could account for 90 percent of the infections in Hong Kong," said Margaret Chan, Hong Kong's director of health. "This is very important further evidence that infection requires close contact, not just casual contact." [...] iht.com
