KUALA LUMPUR: The Health Ministry reported a new probable SARS case yesterday – a 30-year-old air cargo company pilot who recently returned from Hong Kong. 

The man fell sick on Tuesday and was admitted to the Penang Hospital the next day, said deputy director-general Ismail Merican, amid another report that the ministry had traced 203 people who visited a Singapore wholesale market that has been temporarily closed after a worker there was diagnosed with SARS.
