       Among 176 patients who had had severe acute respi-
       ratory syndrome (SARS), SARS-specifi c antibodies were
       maintained for an average of 2 years, and signifi cant re-
       duction of immunoglobulin G–positive percentage and titers
       occurred in the third year. Thus, SARS patients might be
       susceptible to reinfection >3 years after initial exposure.

       Medical experts on Friday warned that patients who had recovered
       from the virus were
       still at risk of being infected again, and said people should
       avoid any mass gathering,
       Zhan Qingyuan, head of infectious diseases at the China-Japan
       Friendship Hospital,
       said in a press briefing on Friday that people who had already
       had the virus would have
       developed antibodies but should remain on alert so they did not
       get ill again.
