SARS
Severe acute respiratory syndrome(SARS) is a viral respiratory illness.
Sars was realized as a global threat in March 2003. Also, sars first appeared in southern China in November 2002.
Sars is caused by a previously unrecognized coronavirus, called SARS-associated coronavirus(SARS-CoV).
Sars first started appearing in Southern china in November 2002. It became a global threat in March 2003
In the begining of the illness someone might have a high fever, sometimes associated with chills or other symptoms, including headache, general feeling of discomfort, and body aches. most patients develop pnemonia. In 2 to 7 days the body's oxygen levels are low and can cause a person to be mechanically ventalated.
We got rid of sars through a CDC response of make sure and cover if you don't have it, if you do have it cover up and seek medical treatment and wait for it to blow over.
