  • Abstract:inst SARS, were implemented after the second patient was admitted. The efficacy of these infection -control measures in protecting healthcare workers was determined by: 1) the occurrence of SARS symptoms as defined by WHO criteria (6) and 2) a rise in antibodies to SARS-CoV before and after specific infection-control measures were implemented. The Study From March 8 to March 28, the hospital admitted five patients in whom SARS-CoV infection was subsequently laboratory-confirmed . The patients were isolated in negative -pressure rooms. Patients 2 and 3 were family members of patient 1. Patients 4 and 5 were believed to have contracted SARS on a March 15 flight from Hong Kong to Beijing. Four of the patients progressed rapidly to respiratory failure and were intubated. Healthcare workers caring for these patients were exposed during two periods. During March 8--14, before specific infection-control precautions were implemented, 73 healthcare workers were exposed to patients 1 and 2. Du

  • Abstract. We argue that it makes sense to talk about ?typical ? properties of lattices, and then show that there is, up to isomorphism, a unique countable lattice L * (the Fra?ss? limit of the class of finite lattices) that has all ?typical ? properties. Among these properties are: L * is simple and locally finite, every order preserving function can be interpolated by a lattice polynomial, and every finite lattice or countable locally finite lattice embeds into L *. The same arguments apply to other classes of algebras assuming they have a Fra...

  • If a system with regular system pencil and relative degree greater than one is perturbed, the relative degree will typically decrease, and new finite zeros will appear. These new zeros are singularly perturbed. This paper applies a new canonical parameterization to systems with singular system pencils. Such systems have undefined relative degree. In singular systems, new zeros also appear under small perturbation, but they are not necessarily singularly perturbed. Rather, these zeros may appear at any frequency.
