    A deadly respiratory virus similar to SARS is spreading real fast around China at the moment. Scary stuff!

    Listen to the CBC out of Ottawa while getting ready for work & they were extensively covering it. Even just last week...they were kind of downplaying the dangerousness of this bug with just a few people suffering from it right now...but did make a statement that it was going to get worse..

    Having just had a bad bought of a lung infection I can attest to how nasty stuff of that nature is... as for the developing China story, that's scary stuff. I suspect they will be under reporting it and checks done at the
    border for any country may be too little to late.. guess time will tell.

    It has spread to US already because people are travelling on planes.

    I'm reminded of the 1st of the current Planet of the Apes movies where during the ending credits...they show how 1 pilot carried the disease all over the world. That was fiction...but have seen stories that this is a horror story waiting to happen.
