NEWS: Hong Kong SARS Deaths Leap, China Cracks Down

HONG KONG/BEIJING (Reuters) - Hong Kong
reported a record nine SARS deaths in a day on
Tuesday, including its youngest victim to date, as the
Chinese capital of Beijing at last woke up to a virus
creeping into its hinterland.
U.S. and Canadian scientists said they had independently
mapped the genome of the new virus blamed for causing
severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS), raising hopes
a test could be developed so treatment can be given as
soon as possible.
But with airlines canceling flights, tourists staying at home
and shops and restaurants empty in SARS hotspots like
Hong Kong and Singapore, Asian governments are facing
their greatest challenge since the 1997-98 regional economic crisis.
