HONG KONG (AFP) - The death toll from a respiratory virus causing a global health scare hit 101 as more deaths from the mystery disease were reported in Canada, China, Hong Kong and Singapore.
China and Singapore each revealed two more deaths from the virus on Monday while Canada and Hong Kong reported one, raising to exactly 101 the global death toll: 53 in China, 23 in Hong Kong, 10 in Canada, eight in Singapore, four in Vietnam, two in Thailand and one in Malaysia.
Nearly 2,800 suspected cases of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) have been detected around the world with China (1,268 cases) and neighboring Hong Kong (883) the hardest hit.
As SARS claimed five more lives in Asia, the first confirmed case was reported in Portugal and a fifth suspected case detected in Britain.
Vietnam reported five more cases of the disease on Monday, dealing a setback to its efforts to contain the outbreak of the pneumonia-like respiratory virus.
China, meanwhile, faced renewed fire for failing to promptly report the initial cases of the illness to the World Health Organization (news - web sites) (WHO), and top US health officials were to appear before the Congress on Monday to brief lawmakers on the spread of the disease in North America.
Officials in the United States have reported 115 possible cases of SARS and Canada has counted 217, including the ten deaths. An 11th death was under investigation, Canadian health authorities said.
In China, where the first cases of SARS appeared in the southern province of Guangdong in November, the health ministry reported two more deaths on Monday and another 21 cases, bringing the total of cases countrywide to 1,268.
