		Variola major is the severe and most common form of smallpox, with a more extensive rash and higher fever.
		Severe acute respiratory syndrom is a viral respiratory illness caused by a coronavirus, called SARS-associated coronavirus (SARS-CoV).
		The virus that causes SARS is thought to be transmitted mostly by respiratory droplets produced when an infected person coughs or sneezes.The virus also can spread when a person touches a surface or object contaminated with infectious droplets and then touches his or her mouth, nose, or eyes.

		The first documented infection of humans with an avian influenza virus occurred in Hong Kong in 1997, when the H5N1 strain caused severe respiratory disease in 18 humans, of whom 6 died.
		Droplet spread can happen when droplets from the cough or sneeze of an infected person are propelled a short distance (generally up to 3 feet) through the air and deposited on the mucous membranes of the mouth, nose, or eyes of persons who are nearby.

	Early influenza in Europe and SARS escaping from high security laboratories !
		While there has been much speculation on the possible re-emergence of SARS in China, nobody had predicted that the virus would escape so easily from so-called high security laboratories twice within three months.
		As the number of persons exposed to the SARS coronavirus in laboratories that hold the virus is quite limited, these two events suggest that the risk of SARS infection among those who handle the virus in laboratories is quite high.
		As several European laboratories hold and work on this virus, there is a likelihood that similar accidents will occur, and may result in secondary cases and outbreaks.

		I propose that Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome, may be best diagnosed by SARS's telltale dependence on the propaganda used to herald its presence, prompt hysteria, and broadly engage social and economic resources.
