Methods Post-mortem tissue samples from six patients who died from SARS in February and March, 2003 , and an open lung biopsy from one of these patients were studied by histology and virology. Since Nov 1, 2002 , an outbreak of severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) has affected 33 countries in five continents, with 7053 reported cases and 506 deaths at the time of writing. The case definition was fever (temperature 38°C or higher), cough or shortness of breath, new pulmonary infiltrates on chest radiograph, and either a history of exposure to a patient with SARS or a lack of response to empirical antimicrobial coverage for typical and atypical pneumonia (beta-lactams and macrolides, fluoroquinolones or tetracyclines).	./cache/cord-325783-pqonn0as.txt	./txt/cord-325783-pqonn0as.txt
