>>There seems to have been very little spread of SARS outside of hospital and household settings.<<

True, although it appears that "super spreaders" spread much further, like the guy in the elevator, and the person in the plane that infected people five or six rows away.

I think we will not know how widespread it is until it has truly receded or until it is obviously everywhere. The information is being let out in dribbles and is always only partial.I think governments fear some sort of panic or political backlash. If, in fact, one ethnic group is more prone to this infection and more apt to succumb to it, then political correctness requires that that data must be withheld and, in order to not let it out much of the data is fudged or not reported.
