he MeSH Section has added another new descriptor, SARS VIRUS, for the organism that causes the disease SEVERE ACUTE RESPIRATORY SYNDROME. Indexing with this descriptor began April 22, 2003.
</p>
<p>
The new descriptor is not listed in the printed MeSH tools as it was added after the MeSH tools were published. It was available in the <a href="http://www.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/MBrowser.html">MeSH Browser</a> on April 21, 2003. You may want to add the following to your MeSH tools:
</p>
<dl>
<dd>SARS VIRUS<br /><br /></dd>
<dd><font size=-1>B04.820.504.540.150.750</font></dd>
<dd><font size=-1>B04.909.777.500.540.150.750</font>
<br /><br /></dd>
<dd>
<font size=-1>A species of CORONAVIRUS causing atypical respiratory disease (SEVERE ACUTE RESPIRATORY SYNDROME) in humans. The organism is believed to have first emerged in Guangdong Province, China, in 2002.</font></dd>
</dl>
<p>
