China is conducting emergency safety checks at SARS laboratories nationwide after a leak in Beijing spawned a web of infections that led to the first reported death from the virus since the major outbreak last year. Fearing contagion, China has stepped up surveilling passengers for SARS before the week-long May 1st holiday when millions of people will travel by air and rail. [Reuters]
