Pregnant nurse dies of SARS
May 8, 2003

A NURSE who had worked at a Taiwan hospital that suffered a SARS outbreak has died of the disease, just weeks before she was to deliver her first baby, officials said today.

The woman, who died late yesterday, was the first pregnant woman to die of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome in Taiwan, health officials said. She contracted the illness while working at Jenchi Hospital before it was sealed off last month.

She was later transferred to Mackay Hospital for treatment.

Officials also said a 42-year-old taxi driver was suspected to have died of SARS late yesterday, only two days after he sought hospital care.

The man continued driving his cab for at least four days after he had a high fever but took medicine to keep it down, they said. Authorities were trying to track down people who rode in the taxi.

Well, since Townshend's bust for child porn, I'll bet The Who is not selling records like they used to.
