Toronto has hundreds under quarantine too.

Toronto Sun: "Toronto EMS said more than 140 of its paramedics are quarantined -- plus three have been hospitalized with the illness -- and it is getting by with medics on overtime and by reducing its services." http://www.canoe.ca/TorontoNews/ts.ts-03-28-0006.html

"Toronto has become a hot zone for SARS as Ontario's top doctors step up their mad rush to choke off the spread of the illness before it smothers the city. Under an emergency plan that changes by the day, visitors have been banned from all Toronto hospitals, the province has bought every surgical mask for sale in Canada and the World Health Organization called for all passengers boarding international flights at Pearson airport to be screened for SARS." http://www.canoe.ca/TorontoNews/ts.ts-03-28-0003.html

I just heard on another discussion list from somebody in Toronto that Toronto is considering mandatory quarantine. Basically, you wouldn't be allowed out of your house without a mask.

What are we doing in the U.S.? I'm more worried about this than I am about a terrorist attack.
