Wait, could that promed report be interpreted differently? Could it mean that many who are listed as having SARS acutally have pneumonia or the lung form of chlamydia, and therefore are not as dangerous?

Now I am really more confused... If it doesn't mean that, and that these are as lethal as SARS....

then I am more worried about some kind of biogerm-warfare cocktail has been released, either accident, or purposefully.

Weaken the enemy, distract him, break down his freedom, etc... Sounds like something out of that Sun-Tsu war book (not sure if i have the name right, but someone will know here)

I think it does mean that, because the report also seems to call for relaxing the quarantine on those people.
