Mapa acumulativo de casos de la OMS (mayo 2003) [Ir] Definición de casos, [Ir] Mapa acumulativo de casos a 5 de mayo 2003: The reason that there are jumps in the columns is that research has been undertaken into the spread of the virus and cases that were not previously reported have been added.  One of the attributes of the chart is that there is an increase of the angle in the total number of deaths.  The disease is well establiblished in China, Hong Kong and Singapore.  In these areas doctors are probably fighting a losing battle to stop the spread of the disease.  The probability of getting SARS in these areas is however still very low, given the population of these areas and the number of victims.  We are fighting against the spread of the disease to slow the disease progress.  The number of people who are dying from SARS is presently doubling every two weeks.  The number of people identified with the disease is presently going up 77% every two weeks.
