With all the attention put onto the Oscars, the Elizabeth Smart discovery, the Sopranos lawsuit… oh yeah and the upcoming war (those who are still optimistic that it wouldn’t happen, just accept the fact – Iraq 2.0<\/a> will<\/em><\/strong> happen – the question is when<\/em><\/strong>), people don’t seem to hear about the other problem that should be on people’s mind as well – SARS<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

SARS is the abbreviation for Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome. It has been on my mind due to the recent multi-country outbreak; it has spread throughout China, Hong Kong, Vietnam, Europe, as well as Canada. If it indeed is spread via direct (prolonged) contact instead of casual contact, then maybe I should start wearing a face mask…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

perhaps Michael Jackson knew of this outbreak years in advance, therefore the surgical mask on his face since god knows when…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On a serious note, hopefully all my friends and family are all right, and no one is affected by this recent outbreak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
