Taiwan Reports 3 New
SARS Cases, No Deaths

6-15-3


TAIPEI (Reuters) - Taiwan reported three new SARS infections Sunday, the 15th consecutive day that new cases have remained below five.

Also, two patients previously listed as suspected cases were reclassified, bringing the total number of infections of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome to 699 from 694, the Department of Health said on its Web site.

The death toll remained unchanged at 83.

Taiwan has the world's third largest number of infections and deaths after China and Hong Kong, but the number of new infections has fallen recently.

The World Health Organization (WHO) said Friday Taiwan and Beijing are only places in the world still subject to travel warnings because of lingering worries about SARS there.
