Since severe and acute have the same meaning >they are calling this sickness, Bad Bad respiratory syndrome.   Not quite. Acute in medical terms is defined as having a sudden onset, sharp rise, and short course. Its the opposite of chronic, and has no bearing on the actual intensity of the pain or seriousness of the condition. Its a subtle difference, and is often misunderstood.   See: http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/mplusdictionary.html   Regards,   Stuart Forbes Edinburgh, Scotland ----- Original Message ----- From: Tom aka James Knudson To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, June 09, 2003 10:48 PM Subject: Re: [meteorite-list] Get rid of all your meteorites before it's too late! Hi all, These people have a serious problem! Just the name SARS shows their stupidity, Severe acute respiratory syndrome. Since severe and acute have the same meaning they are calling this sickness, Bad Bad respiratory syndrome. What did a dumb child name it? And they think it came from a comet to boot?
