the real Qs is:

The new thing: SRAS!!

The WHO can go and f*ck themeselves
They issued a travel advisory beacuse 16 people have died.
400,000 americans die every year from tabacco related diseases.
I'd be much more afraid of second hand smoke.

As a torononian, i can safely say that this SARS epidemic is greatly exaggerated.

the people who have died from SARS were a little weak to begin with.
[children and elders]i live in downtown toronto.
there is an awful lot ov hype.
amazes me how the share ov information creates mass paranoia.
- would get a vacation in before West Nile Virus hits us for the summer :)

The WHO stopped me from going into Mocambique once from Zimbabwe, I was entirely freakin' pissed because I was supposed to spend a holiday with this really HOT half Portuguese/Mozam girl on the beach. Don't mention them, like I have some diseases or something, well maybe just a few, ;)

Don't listen to the NEWS, it's anti Canadian Propaganda!! I lived in Toronto for 0ver 13 years and as much as I don't like this city, I still think it's cleaner and safer than most cities in the world!
Only 15 people have died in Toronto, and most of those are over 65 or had terminal diseases anyway!
The chance of you getting it is remote because everyone who has come in contact with suspected cases are being quarrentined for 10 days.

thats 15 more than most other places

this whole SARS thing in toronto is soooooo overblown its a joke..
you'd think we were all dieing of the plague...
fact is, Piper is right..
a handful of old or extreemly sick folks with damaged immune systems have passed away..everyone else is fine...
fact is also, that disease makes news...
papers sell...
folks 'tune in' to cnn or whatever and want to hear about it...what doesn't sell as news is that its all sizzle no steak...
not much of a news story if they actually tell the truth and let you know that it's mostly a media scare...go out in toronto, go out in the streets..
the only place you'll see a face mask is on the cover of a newspaper..
its a big fat bullshit joke..
