I just had a 38 year old girlfriend from Queens, NY, who was 8 months pregnant with her second child, die from pneumonia. They had to do an emergency c-section to save the baby, but the mother's heart gave out with the stress of the pneumonia. I wonder if it is related? The doc was quaranteened in Germany had caught it in Singapore, CAME BACK to the US, to New York, and then was on his way back to Singapore when he was hospitalized in Germany. It's certainly possible that, while in NY, he might have passed it on to somebody. The disturbing thought is the most likely people he might have passed it on to would be other medical personnel or hospital workers

Does anyone know the length of incubation and course of the disease from time of exposure??
I have a very good friend who is a flight attendant. She does fly into Mexico occasionally, but not overseas. I pray for her safety. Her mom was a very dear friend, so this lady and I are close friends.
