I am wondering if this National flu outbgreak is SARS and no one is telling us? The symptons seem very familiar when three children have died so quickly. What do others think?

SARS (sudden acute resporatory syndrome) is caused by a coronavirus.
The flu is caused by flu viruses.
SARS actually has a fairly low case-fatality rate in young people. The same is not as true for the flu.
Anyway, they're not the same thing. It's like saying that trees have trunks, cars have trunks and elephants have trunks. Therefore, elephants are the same things as trees which are the same as cars. Get my drift?
