Two of the fatalities occurred in Beijing, while the third was in the northern province of Shanxi, the ministry said. The death toll from the deadly disease rose to 343 with the new figures.

Beijing has reported neither new confirmed SARS cases nor new suspected SARS cases for three consecutive days.

steady clip since the beginning of May, when more than 150 cases

were reported daily.
