From your link:

Many of those who are sick in this latest cluster are health-care workers, and some nurses are blaming officials for relaxing SARS precautions too early.

Young said now is not the time to assign blame. "Right now we've got to focus on getting control and making sure this gets stopped."

I'm going to take slight exeption to the remarks in that article; officals don't "relax" precautions, they mandate that full protection not be used. Just TRY using a mask, gown and gloves when taking care of someone who, according to the hospital "officials" does not need them...

Whoa, has that story you linked morphed! The bit about the WHO criteria increasing the Toronto SARS figures is buried in the article, which is now headed: "SARS outbreak may have peaked Monday, says Low"

It looks like Canada is determined to minimalize the situation, no matter what the cost in human lives.
