ABBOTT, COSTELLO, AND SARS:

“There has been a humorous side, though. Mr Lastman, in his rage, mistakenly criticised the US Centres for Disease Control (CDC). A doctor, standing beside him during his speech, prompted him with: ‘WHO’. The Mayor repeated: ‘the CDC’. The doctor repeated: ‘WHO’ – trying to correct him. But he kept thinking it was a question. She eventually spelt out: ‘No, the World Health Organisation’. The Mayor said: ‘Yeah them too.’ “

Heh.
