[Kintamayama 47,162]

Yokozuna Asashouryuu has been asked to undergo a SARS check-up upon his return from Mongolia, where he has met his two month old daughter for the first time. Two Sandanme Mongolians, Daionji and Daibanjaku, have already returned from their trip and presented the Kyoukai with negative check-up results. Kitanoumi Rijichou. "We can't be complacent about this. We have 43 foreigners who will be going home for visits. We must keep an eye on the possibility of their being infected. Of course, the Yokozuna is not exempt from this check up as well. We've got to keep a close look on things, otherwise we might find ourselves cancelling a Hon-Basho!!", he said, in his non-panicky way.

Just because no cases are known doesnt mean they dont have it Munktur.

I guess it is necessary with the problem so serious in Japan but I'd be more concerned with him catching it in Japan and taking it to Mongolia.

Doesnt bear thinking about does it?
