Toronto back on WHO Sars list

Toronto, May 27: The World Health Organisation (WHO) has put Canada's largest city, Toronto, back on its list of areas hit by the deadly Sars virus.
Three more deaths from Sars were reported over the weekend, and by the end of Monday, 11 probable new cases and 26 suspected cases had been reported.

But Dr Paul Gully of the Canadian Health Ministry stressed: "There is no travel advisory against Canada at this time" - meaning the WHO's move does not include warnings to people not to go to Toronto.

Meanwhile, there was cautious optimism in Asia, as airlines restored flights suspended due to a plunge in travel.
