MORE than one billion people worldwide could be infected by the deadly SARS virus within a year, a leading UK scientist has warned.
Dr Patrick Dixon, a specialist in predicting global trends based at London's Development Management School, said SARS (Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome) had the potential to turn into a pandemic and infect more people than AIDS.
The grim prediction comes as a Melbourne infection control specialist warned the virus could destroy Third World countries.

I don't trust that press release
