Top questions, answers

Not sure those are good answers:

 Q: What?s the mortality rate for SARS?
    A: About 3 percent, which is much lower than other infectious diseases.


The 3% rate is almost certainly wrong, and most infectious diseases don't kill anybody at all.

Yiwu Zhang,

I really appreciate you spending the time to collect these articles and posting them here. I'm sure there are others like myself who mostly read them without posting responses.
