Shanghai

In Shanghai, every protection measures started automatically. The building I am working at start to post the daily disinfected report in all the elevators.

Since I don’t take taxi any more, I don’t know what is happening on taxis. Anyway, people here are quite skillful to handle SARS and I am not worried at all.

I like your attitude about Sars, calm and confident. The last thing we need is a repeat of last year's panic. Back then, I worried more about people's crazy reactions than actually catching the disease itself! :)

it seems like only yesterday when i was panicking my way out of china. i've been reading the papers and have come across a couple articles about SARS. i'm not sure how i feel about it yet... since i'm now in the philippines. we're still gearing towards moving to shanghai regardless of the situation. for those who are in the same panic boat i was in last year, this blog helped me cope with the unecessary loss of sleep and paranoia.

let's hope this year's bout with sars will be a quick one.

Why you are not taking taxi anymore? is this about security or you got your own car?

I am going to Shanghai in 3 week and I want to be very aware of any potential problem...(Like taxies)

Yes. I got my car so I don't take taxi.
