The third hypothesis, very obviously, is that these 2 pathogens have to come together to cause this very severe outbreak.

Reminds me of the old Certs mint commercial.....

The Ontario government has declared a "health emergency" because of the outbreak of the deadly SARS disease that has forced the quarantine of entire households and the closure of one Toronto school and a hospital emergency room.

- Health Minister Tony Clement said today he has activated an action group under Ontario's emergency powers legislation to try to stop the spread of severe acute respiratory syndrome.

- "We're taking this very seriously," he said. "By characterizing it as a health emergency, we are giving ourselves the powers that we need and the information that we need at the most appropriate time to ensure that we can contain this disease as soon as possible."

- The measure includes a command centre staffed 24 hours a day to co-ordinate all information from hospitals and health workers on SARS, also known as atypical pneumonia.
