SARS case found in Singapore, malaria in Taiwan

And the same paper reports that a man in Taitung, Taiwan, has died of malaria, the first such case on the island for 38 years.

The malaria victim died because his nephew had contracted the disease on a trip abroad. But local mosquitoes bit him, and transmitted the flukes to his uncle.

Investigators claim that while they've captured several specimens of 23 Anopheles Minimus in the area, so far they haven't found any carrying the disease. µ
