but SARS will slow economic activity in only growth region
that is Asia
I think we need to focus much more on money velocity these days
sure, flow of services will slow to & from Asia
but I doubt flow of goods will slow

travel, tourism, hotels, business human connections, these will slow
I dont think this is good for the economy

the only area that is boosted in health activity, like drugs, associated services, sales of masks, even condoms
personally I have been wearing a condom on my nose since the SARS outbreak

but this adds a huge drag on insurance industry liquidation of assets
