The Toronto Star continues to have a great set of Google Map mashups produced each week. Over the past two weeks they’ve produced maps of the admissions into GTA universities by area – presumeably by postal code information provided by the university. Check out the maps below:

University of Toronto: St. George

University of Toronto: Scarborough

University of Toronto: Mississauga

York University: Keele

York Unversity: Glendon

Ryerson University

This is for my hypochondriac friend (you know who you are!), there is both a Google Map of current confirmed infections, as well the United States CDC has begun twittering with updates.

Although it seems humerous, it does mean that we’ve learned a lot from SARS. I remember when the outbreak originally occurred there was more misinformation than good information from an authoritative source. It’s good to see our health authorities really providing quality information out there to concerned citizens. Now it’s our job not to overreact and lock ourselves in our closets.
