The patient was a 44-year-old man who had been studying SARS at
the National Defence University, according to a news release issued
by Taiwan's Center for Disease Control (CDC).
The researcher attended a conference in S'pore on December 1 and
developed a fever on December 10 after returning to Taiwan. He
though he had only flu, but on Tuesday went to a Taipei hospital
where a x-ray showed he had pneumonia. He was then tested for SARS,
and the results were positive.
