Another question that I haven't seen addressed is the condition of those who have "recovered." Reading the story posted by the nurse in the far east who "recovered" --she still has significant disability and it certainly doesn't sound like she's well.

I'd also like the CDC to address the "scarring of the lungs" that we've heard about, and the possibility of reinfection with the same virus.

Those remain huge questions, imho.

The almost complete absence of stories about survivors is getting downright spooky...

We also are not hearing anything about how long the average person is spending in the hospital.

At some point, the ABSENCE of information becomes informative.

So far, SARS is NOT in the U.S. except in fully controlled and isolated cases. My guess is that it will take about a year before we see any significant numbers of SARS patients in the U.S. That's long enough for all kinds of good things to happen. But I'm startin' to get kinda nervous.

Thats the giant pink elephant in the corner no one is talking about, IMO. I don't think anyone is really getting well.

I stand by my gut feeling. We are looking at an immune system destroyer. My worst fear is the survivors are but, the walking dead.
