Is this the first SARS thread? I thought you might know since you've literaly been here from the begining. (or anyone) I'm trying to put together a chronology. Might be interesting all layed out from the perspective of FR info only.

This is the earliest I found after trying various searches. Other possibilities but not definitely SARS.

I think flutters found a 2001 thread on an atypical pneumonia in Sverdlovsk that might have been SARS. No doubt he can also link you to his chronologically arranged list of threads.
