Hello, Just a dumb question..................... Due to the outbreak of SARS in Japan and the other eastern nations, is there a higher chance of contracting SARS when you import JDM crap from Japan? Just a random thought.

I would say....

no to no higher risk. Importing stuff should be ok. Seems the virus doesn't live long out of the body.




Clinical presentation of SARS is of a prodromal illness with sudden onset of fever. Lower respiratory phase begins within 3-7 days after onset of prodrome.
Transmission is occurring through close contact with a symptomatic person. Close contact means having cared for, lived with or had face to face (within one metre) contact with, or direct contact with respiratory secretions and/or body fluids of a person with SARS.
The cases that are the most ill are the most communicable.
There may be transmission during the prodromal period (i.e., when early symptoms are present).
Transmission from an asymptomatic person is very unlikely
Infection control measures, including the use of NIOSH approved N95 respirator3 (mask) or equivalent are effective.
