The National Microbiological Laboratory (NML) in Winnepeg, Canada has looked for more than 250 known causes of lung infection in samples from Canadian patients with SARS (Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome) — the mystery, deadly lung infection spreading from South East Asia — and has so far been unable to identify a likely causative agent. Influenza virus, including that involved in the recent "bird flu" outbreak, has been ruled out by labs in Hong Kong.
