There you can find information on diseases that made the news headlines in the past six years, including the latest, SARS.

Dr Muruga, 45, a director of a pharmaceutical company, developed the website in 1995 and over the years has included the latest information on major diseases published by doctors, as well as news reports from all over the world.
