China reported two new cases of Sars yesterday amid growing fears that the Labour Day holiday would be disrupted again. One woman was in a critical condition as the authorities quarantined 700 people in Beijing.
Four people have been confirmed with Sars in the past month and five other cases are suspected. Those infected have been in contact with a worker at the Beijing Institute of Virology, where scientists are trying to develop a vaccine for the disease.
Doctors are also concerned that an infected nurse may have inadvertently spread the disease during a trip to Anhui province.
Last year, Sars killed 349 people in China. This time last year the government restricted travel during the May holiday, disinfected the streets of Beijing and closed schools and cinemas.
The health ministry has iso lated 1,000 people who may have been in contact with Sars carriers.
