  Obviously.  However as SARS is communicable as an airborne
virus, any individual that has been in contact with SARS must
take personal responsibility to be given a clean bill of health,
and any individual that has knowledge of any other person that
has contracted the condition is duty bound to report such
if that there is a reasonable possibility of endangering the
public.  Hence Eric, may or may not have been given a clean
bill of health, but all reported or known cases must be dealt with
very carefully as SARS is now a Pandemic and getting much worse
in it's proliferation.  Hence CDC will be contacted as I indicated
in my original post on this thread.

  Presently as an example, my company and myself were contacted
by health authorities in regard to SARS on April 2nd, and directed
that any of our personnel that have been in a number of Asian countries
be checked for carrying SARS.  Two of our employees have contacted
SARS and are currently now quarantined in those respected countries
until further notice.  CDC is currently sending out teams to several
countries
where this virus has been prevalent so as to stem the spread to the US
and other countries not currently reporting any incidences of the
virus yet.  So, I and my staff have cooperated fully with CDC to
help ensure that anyone, and/or any of my companies employees
that I am aware of stay put and turn themselves over to the health
authorities in those respected counties ASAP and be checked for
contraction of SRS before returning to the US and Canada. Our
European offices are doing likewise.

  Some of these countries are taking needed immediate measures
to aid in the prevention of the spreading of SARS and retaining
those that have or may be considered exposed to be detained
as appropriate.
