Hey hey...mind you, it's academic whether I or someone in the US - 
which is where all the news is coming from - should be doing it; the 
world is such a global village now, and we are in fact so removed from 
the site of the action, that the fact we are in Africa is of no 
relevance when it comes to information gathering or dispersal.  Aside 
from the fact that I know Bob Swanepoel from the Special Pathogens 
Unit at the Nat Inst for Virology in Jo'burg is going to Zaire with a 
South African mobile lab to do the serology.  Bye, Bob....  Try to 
come back to us?
