Second suspected SARS case From correspondents in Beijing January 8, 2004 A WAITRESS in hospital in China's southern city of Guangzhou today was declared the country's second suspected SARS case of the season, the Government said. The one-sentence announcement by the official Xinhua News Agency did not give any other details. But earlier reports said the 20-year-old woman worked in a restaurant in Guangzhou that served wild game. The woman, whose name was not released, went to a hospital December 31 with a fever, according to the reports. She was isolated after tests showed possible inflammation in her lungs. Health authorities were investigating how the woman might have contracted the disease and were disinfecting her home and other places that she had been, the reports said. news.com.au Regards, ldo79

Three have SARS-like symptoms From correspondents in Hong Kong January 8, 2004 THREE television reporters had been admitted to a Hong Kong hospital after showing SARS-like symptoms after a visit to the southern Chinese province of Guangdong, a hospital spokeswoman said today. The three men from local broadcaster TVB had been in Guangdong last week to cover a SARS case in the province involving a 32-year-old mainland Chinese television journalist. The three were admitted to Queen Mary Hospital after displaying symptoms of fever, coughs and upper tract infection. They were now in isolation wards and were in a stable condition, the spokeswoman said. Earlier, China said its only confirmed SARS patient has been released from hospital, then immediately announced another suspect case. news.com.au Regards, ldo79
