Book Description

May 2003
This is a comprehensive set of official Federal government documents on the newest emerging threat to world health, SARS, known as Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome. SARS, first discovered in early 2003 and frequently presenting as atypical pneumonia, has been described in the Washington Post as "the first life-threatening new disease in emerge in decades that can be spread from one person to another by casual contact." SARS is currently thought to be caused by a new type of coronavirus. It poses unique and potentially serious problems for the citizens of all nations.

Every aspect of SARS is thoroughly covered:

Frequently Asked Questions U.S. Interim Case Definition Information for Close Contacts Guidelines for Persons Traveling to SARS-Affected Areas Travel Alerts and Advisories Interim Guidelines for Adoptees and Families Infection Control Precautions Interim Guidance for Cleaning Aircraft Cleaning and Disinfection of SARS Patient Environment Updated Interim Guidance of Pre-hospital Emergency Medical Care and Ground Transport Domestic Guidance SARS International Case Report Form Specimen Collection and Transport Laboratory Biosafety Guidelines Quarantine Authority, Bush Executive Order Clinical Updates

As a bonus, we've included CDC material regarding the careful use of antibiotics to prevent the continued development of dangerous antimicrobial resistance. There is material from the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and the National Institutes of Health (NIH).

The CD-ROM included with this printed digest contains the computer video files (in Real Media format) recent outstanding CDC public health training conferences - including "Preventing the Spread of AIDS" and "Increasing Clinician Preparedness for SARS." These superb television presentations are perfect for learning the latest on SARS.

This material is not a substitute for professional medical advice; of course, readers are urged to consult with a professional health care provider for any suspected illness. It makes a great reference work and educational tool for medical professionals, physicians, and patients and their families.
