most people associate hong kong, and all thsoe other asian cities as one place, Japan, so dont get smart on us


i would not be scared of SARS
considering there are 5 billion people on earth and only a couple thousand have got it, its not that big of a deal IMO

They do it out of ignorance! Just by being on this board, you should be able to recognize the differences in location of our Asian friends! Take up geography and be more respectful of where people are from! You may learn something useful!

So you are telling me you didn't know the difference between Hong Kong and Japan either then....

yes, i do, but im saying, that mos tpeople her ein the USA, or at least in my area, are pisssed cuz unemployment has gone from 1 % to 11% in 6 months cuz all the jobs go to china, so they sya shit like, all the jobs goen to hong kong, or tokio (japan) or other asian, not nessecarily china towns.

OK?

but guys like i would ask the same Q, its not racial profiling in any way, its just that it originated from there and nobody wants to get it so dont over exadurate

i also live near toronto and im not avoiding asians or anything, i have alot of asian buddys so lets not over exadurate

OK guys, I know that it's a big deal, but I read a medical report over the weekend.

90% of all people infected are cured within a week and so far only 4% did actually die from it.

So take it easy. Like said If you stay in condition, then there is probably nothing to worry about. These kind of reactions is what we get with an over "informatised" society. Don't let yourself get scared from all the TV news. They need audience for the commercial income, so any "wild" news is good. I'm not saying we should ignore this, but rather place it in perspective.

just my 2 cents.

Actually.. if you are healthy and strong, you got nothing to fear.
Just practice personal hygiene and everything is fine!

If you have any signs of Sars.. wear a mask and immediately seek Medical Attention..

That's what I read from Newspaper..

As far as jobs going to China and driving your unemployment rate from 1-11%. Unless you're an economics major, I would say you're flat out wrong. The stagnation in the US economy is not from labor pool shifts to 3rd world countries.

As an American, I don't think it's too much to ask my fellow Americans for some common sense when it comes to global geography. We would like to think we are the center of the world. The fact is, we are not. Hong Kong is a completely different place than Japan, than Vietnam, Singapore, etc..

After all, how insulted would you be if someone assumend you were Mexican or Canadian. After all, they're both also North Americans.

Do you consider Ireland to be England simply because they're both in the UK?

Well put....thank you

May I correct you on one thing though, Ireland is it's own country, Northern Ireland is part of the UK.

The UK is the whole island. Ireland, Scottland, England are the UK. Or so I thought. I stand corrected. Scottland, England, N. Ireland are the UK.

Wales

Ireland & N.Ireland are a separate Isle

England is not an Island.....It is called the British Isles for a reason.

Hi Jay~ It's transmitted through droplets. But you are correct... the "virus" will not survive especially through shipping coz the duration is too long.. Normally the virus can stay on the surface of a room temperature for up to 4 hours.

its actually 6 hrs....but that doesnt really matter...

i like ure sig... so sad to see him commit sucide like that...

hehe, was just gonna say that.. actually its 6 285 500 450 and going up every second... but anyways.. SARS is scaring the fvck out of a lot of ppl in Toronto, especially the caucasians in my area because there's a large concentration of Asians. It's not that serious compared to HK, but it's not "just another virus"... I guess it's best not to overlook this issue but just be careful of your hygene. My dad is in HK right now and I am very scared that he might be one of the many unlucky people... he also mailed a couple models to me...

[tankie]

guy don't worry be happy make more models and don't think about sar because modeling will trash all the killer sar

[endlesskev86]

LOL
we are so used to the paint fumes we are gonna be immune to SARS...!!
