    Snippet: Emerging and re-emerging viruses that cause human diseases are becoming of greater concern for public health. A good example is the SARS coronavirus (SARS-CoV) virus, which first appeared in the human population in late 2002 and eventually infected $8000 people with a 10% fatality rate (WHO, 2003) .

    Document: Emerging and re-emerging viruses that cause human diseases are becoming of greater concern for public health. A good example is the SARS coronavirus (SARS-CoV) virus, which first appeared in the human population in late 2002 and eventually infected $8000 people with a 10% fatality rate (WHO, 2003) . Today, the avian influenza H5N1 virus poses a significant threat if effective human -human transmission develops, with the potential risk of a Spanish flu-like pandemic (Juckett, 2006; Tellier, 2006 ; Thomas and Noppenberger, 2007) . The emergence of these viruses and other biothreat agents has raised world concerns for their use in biowarfare/bioterrorism and demonstrates the vulnerability of society to biological threats.
