But SARS could become an issue with AIDS activists because it seems it would be more likely to attack someone with a compromised immune system, as those with AIDS.

Actually, it will become an issue with AIDS activists when funding for AIDS research has to compete with funding for SARS research. If SARS is as bad as it's potentially looking, there could be serious cuts for AID research. Of course, is there anyone bold enough to make that kind of choice left in government? Probably not.
