SARS From Space?

Hey i was looking about n found dis article
www.space.com...

States Sars could have come from space, which got me thinking isnt a virus a organism? very small one but it is still a cell if i rember my Science class

N if so wouldnt that kinda support alien life forms of some kind?
I honestly belive its a load of bull n Chandra Wickramasinghe just wanted to get abit of a reputation

Viruses are actually much simpler than a single cell organism. Virus is essentially DNA debris that have enough information ecoded to hijack a host cells replication machinery if it is ever absorbed by a host cell.

I find it interesting that this person tried to pass this story off to a tabloid and not to any respectable science news organization. I wonder if she was "compensated" for her story?

Also, if, as she insinuated, this virus was delivered in the high atmosphere, it would be popping up all around the world. China seems to be a well defined nucleus for SARS activity.

Maybe the alien's don't like the chinese ... Just a thought.

Nuff said, maybe all the chinese food causes a back-up reaction, when all of them fart at once, and collect together, they form viral strains...never know..there are like 2 billion on them there....
