A 12-member joint working group composed of experts from the World Health organization (WHO) and officials from China's Health Ministry arrived here Tuesday on a 10-day survey to witness SARS control and treatment work in the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region.

These experts, who had their body temperatures taken upon arrival at the airport and their hotel, spoke positively of the practice.

The WHO lifted last Friday the travel warning against Tianjin, Hebei, Shanxi and Inner Mongolia.

On Tuesday afternoon, experts heard briefings on local SARS prevention and control work, which left Dr. Johan Giesecke, one ofthe experts, with a deep impression.

During their stay here, experts are expected to learn about Inter Mongolia's experience in this regard and future measures andconfer with local medical workers.

Before arriving here, the WHO experts had visited Guangdong, Beijing, Shanghai, Hebei, Guangxi, Anhui, Henan and Tianjin.
