    I have been dealing with this at work on a dialy basis. As long as you are taking precautions such as washing your hands and keeping them away from your face if they are dirty you will be fine. Stay away from hospitals and nursing homes if it is possible and if someone if showing the signs of SARS then move to a different area. If you feel that you have been exposes to this virus. They recommend that you quantieen (sp) yourself to your home for 10days. You may at this point want to contact your family physician.

    I don't know Shredz, they (the CDC) are saying the main transmission method is by droplets, meaning you catch it by breathing air somewhere near where an infected person sneezed or coughed. Washing hands is good and would protect you from getting it from a doorknob or benchpress bar, but won't stop airborne SARS.
