It has now officially spread to the middle east and Asia and WHO says there is no way to contain it.
That said, the urgency here seems to be that it is spreading a lot faster than other Type A flus. The good news is that it isn't appearing to be as deadly as first feared (so far it is less fatal than SARS) and the safeguards put in place for early detection appear to be working.
I am convinced there is cause for concern but not for panic.
