Visionaries:   The People's Republic of China is issuing a warning to travelers
to China that they expect an outbreak of SARS beginning in March, and that the
new mutated strain will be much worse than this year's virus.

The source of this information came through the AFS Office in Portland who
are trying to arrange a teacher exchange in March with Mt. View High School
in the Treasure Valley with a school in Shanghi.  AFS does much of the ground
work in preparing for the visitation and arranges for visas, etc.

The interesting fact is that the Chinese government has been evasive and
not always straight forward with information of this type in the past..
