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...

Same thing happened the first time around. Officials wouldn't provide the "proper" protective respirator masks, etc. to protect the health care workers.

Yep, officials said the same thing the first time around. All talk and no action. This is nothing but rhetoric to attempt to convince the WHO and the public they are deeply concerned.( but please, come to Toronto, eat in our restaurants, it's safe here.... LOL) Yeah, right! You couldn't pay me enough to work in the Canadian/Govt. Health System!
