What disease, caused by a coronavirus, first appeared in China in late 2002 and is suspected to have jumped from bats to humans through civet cats?
Answer SARS
It's deja vu all over again! The initial SARS epidemic resulted in 8000 cases in 26 countries. The global epidemic ended in July of 2003, but since then a small number of cases have occurred in China as a result of laboratory accidents or possibly through animal-to-human transmission.
