    During the Sars crisis which was the only country in the world to completely close its borders?

    Question #68674. Asked by mochyn. (Jul 23 06 8:07 AM)

    Many countries closed their borders although not completely. It appears that Kazakhstan may have taken the most extreme measures.

    "Kazakhstan will fully reopen its borders with China which were closed due to the outbreak of severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) in China, the government information office said on Thursday."
