Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome
20 March - 15 June 2003

The light green bars indicate the total number of patients under intensive care on any given day. The gray dots represent the cumulative number of deaths since the SARS outbreak began.

note: The above values were obtained by subtracting the cumulative number of patients released from Hong Kong hospitals from the cumulative number of new admissions, and then dividing the result into the number of critical cases reported for each day.
