A possibility for animal-human transmission?
What if (tinfoil) some research like THIS went awry?
Check this out- PRC's Year 2000 report on Biotech included the following:
PRC Biotech: Top Researcher Sees Great Prospects
A January 2000 report from U.S. Embassy Beijing
biotech researchers want to modify animal blood so that human blood donors will not be needed. The four-year European Union moratorium on genetically modified organisms gives China Lack of IPR protection, lack of venture capital, lack of an adequate distribution system, and the lack of public understanding of biotechnology are important hindrances to Chinese biotech. a great opportunity to seize biotech market share. The European Union has blow biotech fears all out of proportion. Chen said that many millions of Americans have eaten biotech products during the past three years so they must be safe for Chinese people too. Bureaucracy is the number one problem for Chinese science.
Transform Animal Blood, Organs for Human Use--- (excerpt)
Now the Chinese Ministry of Science and Technology is working on a project to transform the blood of cows or pigs to human blood. This will make it unnecessary to have human blood donors. Small-scale clinical trials of transplantation of organs from transgenic animals may start next year. Transgenic researchers are trying to remove the genes that cause rejection of a pig's heart so that if it is transplanted into a human the organ will be accepted. In the not too distant future we might see people who as the Chinese saying goes have "wolf hearts and dog lungs."

Cats can get SARS but can't transmit it?
Great news all around.
On the other hand, I'm not without some feelings; this could put quite a crimp in the food supply for people in the Far East.
I hate cats.

Those EVIL CATS again, that's why I have a dog.
