The Public Health Group of the SARS (Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome) Expert Committee continues its second-day meeting in Hong Kong.

The Group today (July 8) met with Department of Health officials and hospital chiefs to dig deep into the sequence of outbreaks, back in February and early March when sporadic severe community acquired pneumonia cases were reported.

Group members would also be briefed on the notification mechanism with the Mainland and exchange of information with the World Health Organisation.
