Monday, March 17, 2003Nine deaths from atypical pneumonia have been reported in China, Vietnam, Hong Kong and Canada. The WHO is treating the cases as one emergency, although it is not clear if they are related. The first cases were reported in southern China late last year. Mr Bekedam said: "At the moment, there is no proof of a clear linkage." The WHO said on Saturday that 150 new suspected cases had been reported over the past week. It said that they occurred in Indonesia, the Philippines, Singapore and Thailand. They also say that the pneumonia strain occuring in China appears to be treatable. Still no need for panic. posted by Sydney on 3/17/2003 08:29:00 AM 0 comments 0 Comments: |
