- Carlo Urbani was an Italian physician and the first to identify severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) as a new and dangerously contagious disease. His early warning to the World Health Organization (WHO) touched off a massive response that probably helped save the lives of millions of people around the world. In 2003, Urbani was called in to The French Hospital of Hanoi to look at patient Johnny Chen, an American businessman who had fallen ill with what doctors thought was a bad case of the flu. Urbani realized that Chen did not have the flu, but that what he did have was probably new and highly contagious. Urbani immediately notified WHO, triggering the most effective response to a major epidemic in history. Urbani persuaded the Vietnamese Health Ministry to begin isolating patients and screening travelers, thus slowing the early pace of the epidemic. The World Health Organization has recognized that Dr. Urbani probably saved a large unknown number of lives, because of his early detection of the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome. Due to the work he did in Hanoi treating SARS infected patients, Dr. Urbani became infected with the virus himself. On March 11, he flew from Hanoi to a conference in Bangkok, Thailand where he was to talk on the subject of childhood parasites, he started feeling feverish on the plane. A colleague who met him at the airport called an ambulance. They sat in chairs eight feet apart until an ambulance arrived 90 minutes later, because it's attendants stopped for protective gear first. His Bangkok hospital room had been jury-rigged as an isolation ward, so his wife could only talk to him by intercom. Ms. Chiorrini saw him conscious just once. As his lungs weakened he was put on a respirator. In a conscious moment, Dr. Urbani asked for a priest to give him the last rites, and according to the Italian Embassy in Bangkok, said he wanted his lung tissue saved for science. After 18 days of intensive care, Carlo Urbani died on 29 March 2003 at 11:45 AM. Urbani received his medical degree from the University of Ancona and worked for a time as a general practitioner, before starting a career in infectious diseases. He was a past president of the Italian chapter of Médecins Sans Frontières and was one of the individuals who accepted the 1999 Nobel Peace Prize on behalf of that organization. He was employed by the World Health Organization and based in Hanoi, Vietnam, where he mainly worked on combatting parasitic diseases, but was generally expert on infectious diseases. He was married and had three children. His life and professional experience have been narrated by former WHO colleagues Marco Albonico and Lorenzo Savioli in the book "Le malattie dimenticate" published by Feltrinelli in 2004.
- Carlo Urbani war ein italienischer Arzt.
- Carlo Urbani byl italský lékař,který působil v Hanojské nemocnici. Byl to on,kdo udržel v izolaci nový virus a zamezil jeho šíření dál. Do poslední chvíle se staral o nakažený personál a neúnavně v laboratoři sledoval virus a popisoval příznaky nového onemocnění. Na jeho obětavost vzpomínají nejen přeživší zdravotní sestry ale i rodiny těch, které zemřely . Carlo Urbani zemřel na příznaky onemocnění SARS dne 29.3. 2003
- Fu la prima persona a identificare e classificare la Sindrome Respiratoria Acuta Grave (anche nota come SARS o polmonite atipica), la malattia al centro dell'epidemia esplosa in estremo oriente tra il 2002 e il 2003 provocando 775 vittime accertate. Urbani è stato presidente della sezione italiana di Medici Senza Frontiere, veste nella quale nel 1999 ha ritirato per conto dell'organizzazione, insieme ad altre personalità, il Premio Nobel per la pace. Urbani si laurea in Medicina all'Università di Ancona. Dopo gli studi esercita per breve tempo come medico di base, per poi diventare aiuto nel reparto di malattie infettive dell'Ospedale di Macerata, dove rimarrà per dieci anni. Durante questo periodo organizza insieme ad altri medici delle missioni di aiuto in zone remote dell'Africa centrale, riprendendo un impegno nel volontariato che già lo aveva visto coinvolto da giovane attraverso diverse organizzazioni cattoliche. Queste esperienze, grazie alle quali viene in contatto con realtà in cui la sofferenza è spesso originata da malattie comuni e curabili, ma che le condizioni di povertà e la mancanza di farmaci trasformano in serie minacce, lo portano a lasciare la professione e a impegnarsi a tempo pieno nella cooperazione. Nel 1996 entra in Medici senza frontiere, organizzazione per la quale si trova a operare prima in Cambogia, quindi in Laos, infine in Vietnam. È qui che, operando come consulente dell'Organizzazione Mondiale della Sanità ad Hanoi, a fine febbraio 2003 individua l'insorgenza tra il personale ospedaliero vietnamita dell'allora sconosciuta SARS, rimanendone probabilmente infettato a sua volta. L'11 marzo mentre si trova a Bangkok per una conferenza accusa i primi disturbi tipici della malattia, che nel volgere di pochi giorni si aggravano al punto da provocarne la morte il 29 dello stesso mese. Sposato, lascia 3 figli.
- カルロ・ウルバニ（Carlo Urbani, 1956年10月19日 - 2003年3月29日）は、重症急性呼吸器症候群 (SARS) をはじめて新しい感染症と認定し、国際社会へ報告したイタリア人の内科医である。マルケ州アンコーナ県カステルプラーニオの出身。 国境なき医師団イタリア支部の会長を務め、1999年に同組織がノーベル平和賞を受賞した際には、授賞式に参加する代表団の一人であった。アンコーナ大学で医学博士号を取得した後、世界保健機関に採用され、ベトナムのハノイで主に寄生虫感染症の対策に取り組むことになる。 2003年2月の後半、中国からの旅行者を治療したベトナムの医療従事者の間で急速に重度化する肺炎が見られた。彼は、この症候群を従来にないものと判断し、SARSという新病だと認定した。さらに、これが飛沫感染によるものと判断し、病棟の隔離処置を行った。この前後に彼はSARSに感染したものと思われる。同年3月11日にタイのバンコクを会議出席のため訪れた際に発症し、同地で46歳でこの世を去った。 彼の警告により、世界保健機構は各国への警報を発することができ、ベトナムにおいてはSARSの大規模な流行を防ぐことができた。 また、この時の彼の活動が、高校の英語の教科書の題材に採用されている。
