“Sepsis arises when the body’s response to an infection injures its own tissues and organs. It may lead to shock, multi-organ failure, and death – especially if not recognized early and treated promptly. Sepsis is the final common pathway to death from most infectious diseases worldwide, including viral infections.   Sepsis is a global health crisis.  It affects between 47 and 50 million people every year, at least 11 million die – one death every 2.8 seconds.  Depending on country, mortality varies between 15 and more than 50 %.  Many surviving patients suffer from the consequences from the Sepsis.

Severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) is a rapidly spreading, potentially fatal infectious viral disease.  The viral disease first appeared in Southern China in November, 2002 and spread to more than 24 countries including North America.”.
