The disease was contagious and spreaded rapidly, resulting in a SARS outbreak in Hong Kong in mid-February 2003, and other outbreaks elsewhere in the world. At the end of March 2003, a virus of the Coronaviridae family was identified as the causative agent of the disease (2 -4 ) . This identification has been confirmed by the World Health Organization, and the virus concerned has been designated as the SARS-associated coronavirus (SARS-CoV).
