Index of SARS guidance produced by competent authorities in
the European Union and elsewhere
The Eurosurveillance editorial team has added a
special page to the website which lists guidance and resources on Severe
Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) from government ministries of health and
other competent authorities, in the European Union and elsewhere.
On 7 April, the Health and Consumer Protection Commissioner, David Byrne,
made a European Commission statement on SARS at the European Parliament,
the text of which can be viewed at
