According to the Korean news (which was apparently quoting CNN, although I didn't see the original story), kimchi is the answer to all your SARS worries. Common sense would dictate that Korea should now be inundated with SARS, but we haven't had a single confirmed case yet. The logical conclusion, of course, is that kimchi helps prevent SARS.

You just gotta love Korea sometimes.

just a note, not that its not important to know where the disease came from, but wouldnt it be a little more important to see the progress on how fast we are going to somehow get a vaccine for this? (i hope they make one before im old, apparently if you are less than 5 or considered elderly youve got more of a problem). also, if you are a pessimist, you'll never be disappointed. just maybe a little bit wrong, sometimes.
note about the origin of SARS- if it was made inside a laboratory, and somehow the "bioterrorist scientist" who made this made a vaccine to cure it (for reasons unbeknownst to me), that would be the only useful connection i could see between finding where SARS started. (to know if there is already a vaccine, or not). And why blame it on the russians? pink, i respect that you are open....minded but i think we'd all like to see if theres a credible source mentioning some of the issues in the thing you posted. Not that its wrong or right (ha i feel so neutral, hi im switzerland) its just...why not clear it up?

I never BLAMED the russians, the email was REPORTING on what a russian scientist had SAID.

In the telegraph paper yesterday, the stories about SARS was asking the question was it bio-terrorism? The answer was no. But its on most people's mind.

Personally i don't think we will really know whether its man made or natural for years.

And theres a programme about SARS tonight at 9pm on channel 4 , so shall be watching with interest.

Hmmm...

I would say that SARS is on most peoples minds...but as to whether or not it was produced, or is natural...I wouldn't go so far as to suggest that...

Not everyone thinks the way I do...or the way you do...best to leave that open, then, right? Unless, of course, one has evidence of the fact...

Have a nice day.

It's hard to explain what I thought of it, because my own country, Philippines, is already affected by that disease. And I'm hopin' that it woudn't go that far to my relatives up there!

Well, Korea finally has her first SARS case. Some guy who came back from China. Not to sound harsh or anything, but why couldn't he have stayed there? I mean, did he really feel an overwhelming desire to bring the disease back to his friends and family?

Hurries back to the kitchen to eat some more kimchi and garlic

Thought I pass this along, it was in todays Newspaper:

2 new cases of SARS in a Toronto Hospital - both are nurses. Nothing new really - but what makes this special is :

"Suspected cause of transmission - over tired they took of their protective masks off and rubbed their eyes."

I frankly believe that this whole SARS spread is also to be contributed to personal hygiene.
Lets face it how many people wash their hands after they handle money? Very few next to none after all we all work hard to earn this stuff - how can it be dirty?

To you know where that coin or bill came from?

How many people wash their hands afte they cover their mouth when they cough? And on it goes.......

Personally I am more concerned about the West Nile Virus which is spread via misquito bits then SARS.
