Why did SARS buy salt?

Sars hoarded salt because there are rumors that iodized salt can prevent SARS.

SARS in 2003, because it first appeared on the earth, was not well known, and there was no effective preventive and therapeutic drug, which caused great panic among the whole people. I wonder which "smart person" thinks that SARS is "no code"? Isn't there iodine in our salt? Then eating iodized salt can prevent SARS.

At that time, there was a climax of the whole people grabbing salt. Some time ago, someone said that he hadn't eaten all the salt he had snapped up during SARS. Someone immediately said with a wry smile: the salt snapped up by my family is enough for our whole family and grandchildren to eat for several lifetimes. This is a typical joke that "iodine" and "canon" do not distinguish, referring to a deer as a horse.

Event influence

The normal teaching progress of many universities in Chinese mainland was disrupted, and all primary and secondary schools in Beijing were closed, but the national college entrance examination held in June was not postponed. Many provinces and cities across the country have completely suspended classes in primary and secondary schools, and many areas have changed the previous examination execution order to adapt to the special period.

For example, Beijing adopted the order of filling in volunteers after the scores were announced, which led to a serious "cluster" phenomenon and a sharp increase in the number of repeat students, but on the other hand, it ensured the enrollment of Peking University and Tsinghua. Beijing North Jiaotong University (now Beijing Jiaotong University) is the most famous isolated university. However, many college students have left school and gone home, and the segregation policy has not been thoroughly implemented.
