You are correct! SARS may or may not be established in the US. We have a narrow window of opportunity to control this disease and unfortunately our attention is turned away to Iraq.

We need a plan to isolate the individual, the family, the community, and the city and we should not be nice about it.

At the moment, SARS is a disease of the international traveler. What happens when one of these travelers, meets up with and spends some time with some hooker on her way to a truck stop gig?

"At the moment, SARS is a disease of the international traveler."

What happens when a container ship hit's Long Beach or Seattle and an infected sailor shares it with the local population?
