Death of a hero
« on: March 30, 2003, 05:48:31 AM »
OK - I know that the war in Iraq actually dominates the news.

But yesterday a true hero died.

Dr. Carlo Urbani, 46, identified the outbreak of the severe acute respiratory syndrome, known as SARS, in an American businessman admitted to hospital in Hanoi, Vietnam, where Mr. Urbani was based.

After the discovery he made everything right: He organised the very fast warnings to the correct officials and avoided with his fast actions the world wide spread of this disease.

He saved by doing so 10thousands of lifes.

Yesterday he died because he was infected himself with SARS.

He had a wife and 3 children.
