Severe acute respiratory syndrome.

• World Health Organization (WHO) physician Dr. Carlo Urbani identified SARS as a new disease in 2003. He diagnosed it in a 48-year-old businessman who had traveled from the Guangdong province of China, through Hong Kong, to Hanoi, Vietnam. The businessman and the doctor who first diagnosed SARS both died from the illness.

Severe acute respiratory syndrome.

• Severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) is a serious form of pneumonia. It is caused by a virus that was first identified in 2003.Infection with the SARS virus causes acute respiratory distress (severe breathing difficulty) and sometimes death.

• SARS is a dramatic example of how quickly world travel can spread a disease. It is also an example of how quickly a connected health system can respond to a new health threat.

Severe acute respiratory syndrome.

• On October 5, 2012, the National Select Agent Registry Program of USA published a final rule declaring SARS coronavirus a select agent.

• A select agent is a bacterium, virus or toxin that has the potential to pose a severe threat to public health and safety.

Severe acute respiratory syndrome.

• Patients with SARS are treated mainly for pneumonia. There are no generally effective treatments for most types of viral pneumonia. People with severe cases of SARS and pneumonia may be hospitalized. Healthcare providers may treat symptoms to lower fever or ease breathing, using supplemental oxygen and drugs called bronchodilators, which open airways. http://www.lung.org/lung-disease/severe-acute-respiratory-syndrome/symptoms-diagnosis-treatment.html

Severe acute respiratory syndrome.

• SARS is febrile severe acute respiratory syndrome that first appeared in 2003 and spread rapidly to more than two dozen countries across the world, infecting over 8,000 people and killing 774 before it could be contained in 2004.

Severe acute respiratory syndrome.

• This infection can be spread easily from close person-to-person contact (such as living in the same household) via respiratory droplets that come in contact with skin or mucous membranes (eyes, mouth, or nose).

Severe acute respiratory syndrome.

• Infected people become ill within a week of exposure. During the first week, nonspecific symptoms of a flu-like illness begin. This period is followed by a syndrome of "atypical" pneumonia, including dry cough, and progressively worsening shortness of breath with poor oxygenation. Severely affected people experience respiratory failure and may need mechanical ventilation. http://www.medicinenet.com/severe_acute_respiratory_syndrome_sars/article.htm

Severe acute respiratory syndrome.

• There is no medication that is known to treat SARS. Treatment is supportive.

• During the 2003 outbreak, approximately 25% of people had severe respiratory failure and 10% died.

• The SARS outbreak in 2002-2003 was controlled solely by using public-health measures, such as wearing surgical masks, washing hands well, and isolating infected patients. http://www.medicinenet.com/severe_acute_respiratory_syndrome_sars/article.htm

• Sodium hypochlorite is a chemical compound with the formula Na Cl O - well known disinfectant preparation and used for destruction of viruses and bacteria on external surfaces.

• Sodium hypochlorite is a Disinfectant.

Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome.

• Sodium hypochlorite is very commonly used. Common household bleach is a sodium hypochlorite solution and is used in the home to disinfect different surfaces. In more dilute form, it is used in swimming pools, and in still more dilute form, it is used in drinking water. When pools and drinking water are said to be chlorinated, it is actually sodium hypochlorite or a related compound—not pure chlorine—that is being used. Chlorine partly reacts with proteinaceous liquids such as blood to form non-oxidizing N-chlorocompounds, and thus higher concentrations must be used if disinfecting surfaces after blood spills.

Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome.

• In more diluted and ionized form can be used for I/V administration and treatment for deadly, severe form of viral or bacterial infection.

• Electrolyzed water or "Anolyte" is an oxidizing, acidic hypochlorite solution made by electrolysis of sodium chloride into sodium hypochlorite and hypochlorousacid. Anolyte has an oxidation-reduction potential of +600 to +1200 mV and a typical pH range of 3.5––8.5, but the most potent solution is produced at a controlled pH 5.0–6.3 where the predominant oxychlorine species is hypochlorous acid.

Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome.

• A method of treating acute generalized SARS comprising performing medical treatment , wherein the treatment consists in IV or endo-lymphatic administration of an aqueous solution of sodium hypochlorite.
