If the Death rate from SARS is around 5%-10% as reported in early results, what will the be the death rate if an AIDS patient catches SARS?

I suspect that the fatality rate will sky rocket with the compromised immunity systems of AIDS patents. If SARS ever gets into the Homosexual section of the Nation, lookout.

Prices of houses will drop in San Francisco.

Horrid thought for the day before I stop responding on SARS threads.

I have to wonder what happens when SARS mutates a resistence to the current treatments administered to AIDS patients which may prove life-savings for those who's immune systems are not compromised.

The boogy-man is out there, you just can't see it without a microscope.
