Executing SARS Spreaders in China
Last week, China threatened to execute individuals who knowingly spread the SARS virus. What do you think?
Michael Newell,
Systems Analyst
"Finally, they've hit on a workable method of population control."
Colleen Matthews,
Teacher
"We should let the World Health Organization do the executing. They never get to do the fun stuff."
Charles Barker,
File Clerk
"People with SARS should not be ostracized. Many people with SARS live happy, productive lives for three days before their lungs fall into their underpants."
Sam Kennert,
Mechanic
"We shouldn't be critical. It's an old Chinese custom to shoot people for no good reason."
Martin Reed,
Investment Banker
"I've always said the Chinese don't know how to handle a crisis. Have you ever seen their fire drills?"
Angie Pulliam,
Florist
"SARS has a 90 percent survival rate. That's a higher survival rate than the one for just living in China."
