so are you thinking that you had SARS?

I have to admit I am somewhat confused by the disease. They are putting all the quaranteened SARS travellers who are coming in to SF in a hospital about 6 blocks away from my house, so I started to read up. At first, SARS was characterized often as "about as deadly as the flu"- anybody else see that? So my sense was that if you were not elderly or not 100% healthy for some reason (aids patients around here) you needed to be very concerned. But for your average adult, you could shake the disease. Now, what I am seeing is a 7% mortality rate. Flu sure doesn't have that does it? Apparently 2 more cases died in toronto, so I guess that means toronto stays on the WHO trouble spots list.

Are you still having to take medication? Are you considered 'cured' ?

-- I ran a temperature of 101 to 104 four four months and was treated with everything known to mankind.

That explains your posts. Why were you going on and on about China where you had gotten a mystery illness?

>> This was at Kaiser Medical

What's a global bigwig like you doing at Kaiser?
