Dear Ian,

<<This puts the probable cases at far less than Canada which is comforting
for
USA residents. Can you post the web site that gives current figures for the
USA?>>
** The CDC site is a good place for U.S. stats:

For worldwide stats see the WHO site:

<<In the media, probable and suspect cases are being linked together. SARS
and SARS related deaths are linked together. In several instances, it is
likely that the deaths would have occured anyway but because the patient has
been exposed to SARS, it gets guilt by association. Those that are
reporting no deaths from SARS, are they subtracting the deaths from other
causes and not linking the deaths to SARS?>>
** I am unaware of any people gravely ill who then contracted SARS and
died.
There are a number of elderly people who have died but all were living in
the community prior to contracting SARS.
Do you have references to this or is it perhaps speculation on the part of
media?
Throughout this event I've found that the media is quite inaccurate in
its reporting.
For instance, they are now reporting a rise in SARS deaths. This is not
true. They are looking at the adjusted figures and seeing a rise in death
rates when the adjusted figures are only accounting for a flaw in how the
mortality rate was being calculated. I suppose it makes a better headline
to do it their way, lol.
Regards,
Catherine
