Goodbye SARS

Finally, SARS is beating a fast retreat, according to the WHO, thanks to intense public health measures.  That is the biggest news in Asia.  And it’s happening none too soon: SARS has reeked havoc on the lives of thousands and crippled the Asian economy.  Thank all of you who have expressed concern for our personal health.

Judy and I have recently visited Ayutthaya and Chiang Mai.  We have seen temples, ridden elephants, and even watched a patient in an elephant hospital receive acupuncture.  We have also trudged miles throughout Bangkok, locating a long-term apartment.  It’s been great!
