    Family physicians play a vital role in managing Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS). Proper use of personal protective equipment (PPE) by these frontline workers is crucial for preventing SARS-CoV transmission.

    Area of Science:

    • Infectious Diseases
    • Virology
    • Public Health

    Context:

    • Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) is an infectious disease caused by the SARS-associated coronavirus (SARS-CoV).
    • Transmission primarily occurs through respiratory droplets from symptomatic individuals during close contact.
    • Family physicians are often the first point of contact for patients with suspected or probable SARS.

    Purpose:

    • To highlight the critical role of family physicians in managing SARS patients.
    • To emphasize the importance of correct personal protective equipment (PPE) use and management by family physicians.
    • To underscore the significance of primary care in controlling SARS-CoV spread.

    Summary:

    • This study focuses on the essential function of family physicians in the initial care of SARS patients.
