X such as Y / such X as Y

by Magellan » Wed May 07, 2008 11:53 pm
Hello all

Is it the same to use 'X such as Y' and 'such X as Y'.

For example:

1) Scientists want to pursue eradication of infections such as measles and yaws.
2) Scientists want to pursue eradication of such infections as measeles and yaws.

Thanks

1) Scientists want to pursue eradication of infections such as measles and yaws.

There can be many more infections scientists want to eradicate and two of them are M & Y

2) Scientists want to pursue eradication of such infections as measeles and yaws.

The scope is limited to M & Y of such infections.
