Severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS)
Severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS). Conceptual image of the letters of SARS on a lung artwork. This represents the SARS virus infecting the lungs. SARS is a disease first recorded in China in late 2002. Its symptoms include coughing, fever and headaches. It is thought to be spread through the air and by touching surfaces contaminated by water droplets from coughing. Death is usually from respiratory failure, with a mortality rate of around 10%. It is caused by a coronavirus, other types of which cause common colds and some forms of gastroenteritis

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a conceptual image of the letters spelling out "SARS" on an artwork representing infected lungs. Severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) is a disease that originated in China in late 2002, causing widespread concern and alarm. The symptoms of SARS include coughing, fever, and headaches, making it highly contagious and dangerous. The image beautifully captures the essence of this devastating virus by illustrating its impact on the respiratory system. SARS is believed to spread through the air or by touching surfaces contaminated with water droplets from coughing individuals. Its mortality rate stands at approximately 10%, primarily resulting from respiratory failure. Caused by a coronavirus, similar to those responsible for common colds and certain forms of gastroenteritis, SARS poses significant health risks worldwide. This thought-provoking artwork serves as a reminder of the importance of understanding pathogens like these and their potential consequences. With its focus on biology, medicine, epidemiology, virology, and pulmonary health care concepts, this print offers valuable insights into the field of microorganisms' impact on human health. It provides an opportunity for researchers and medical professionals to delve deeper into studying severe acute respiratory syndrome while raising awareness about its existence within our global community.
