Remember the movie "Outbreak?"

Although the movie is not real, SARS seems to be incredibly similar to "Motaba" (The Virus in the movie). A CNN Report this morning announced that SARS has mutated and re-infected patients who have thought to have fought (strain one).

I wonder, every one is denying that this is a terrorist related incident. Maybe so, but could SARS have been man made?, and "got out of its cage" per say? Or, was it simply, "in the numbers" that a virus, on the same level as the "common cold", would have an impact on human life, eventually.

And again, I will pose the question:

Has someone caught SARS, never shown a sign of getting it, fought it completely, and we would never know it? (This is a question I always ask about AIDS)

That is all...
