CBC News Indepth: SARS

1. The first case of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) came in November 2002 and killed 800 people around the world. Main symtoms are high fever, dry cough, shortness of breath or breathing diffculties, pneumonia, confusion, rashes and diarrhea. Sars is highly infectious and contagious. The SARS virus orginated in China and quickly spread to Tronoto where 600 people died.

2. This makes me think that we should have laws when pandemics break out. The governemnt should ban any airline travel if you are seriously ill. They could find a way to test travelers before they leave the country that way it will help prevent spread to other countries around the world
