Sorry a decimal misplaced, the point however is that Sars is not much deadlier than some of the cold epidemics we get, it is not transmitted as easily and long term should not have a major impact. It surely is less of a problem than the like of Malaria , AIDS and cholera. The death rate does depend on the care given, in the US they still have not reported a single death associated with SARS. Obesity (fast food restaurants) kills many more Americans than AIDS, malaria, SARS and smoking combined.
