yeh i know what you mean, i cant get a car without my dad being here, and doesnt look like he'll be coming back this summer becuase of SARS.

Are you saying he doesn't want to risk coming over, or are you saying they are actually not letting him come back to Canada??

[Zephyr]

you know the whole you have to isolate yourself for 10 days thing... he just cant afford 10 days like that..

his business really slowed down too, ppl from Europe are scared to come to China.. and the ppl in China are scared of my dad from HK. its all messed up

You do not have to isolate yourself for 10 days unless you are showing symptoms and they have actually upped it to 14 days.

I have travelled back and forth at least 3 times between Japan and Canada since the SARS thing and I think its pretty overblown. More people die from the common flu than SARS. Sure, its a scary disease and you should be careful but I wouldnt cancel any travel plans over it.

Well Said - I have been in Toronto since the middle of this week, and I have yet to find anyone wearing a facemask, or exercising precautions that have seemingly been portrayed by the media as necessary to avoid SARS. Being here, you would never have noticed that there is a health issue due to SARS unless you read the newspapers.

I'm in HK right now. Every 1 in 10 people that I see have a mask. Even people wear them when they drive in their own cars but my family says that it has died down and there is only about 1 new case per day.

I think it's time I get my own...cause they have pink ones! Seriously!!

I'll post pictures later

In times like this, money transfer! Why do you need your uncle or dad physically to be here?

Anyway, I don't know why you are so concerned about SARS Zeph. Chances of you catching and dying from it are extremely slim. Stop watching the news, its bad for you!
