SARS (severe acute respiratory syndrome) is a new type of infection that emerged in Asia, North America, and Europe. The illness starts with a high fever (38 degrees Centigrade) accompanied by other symptoms such as headache and body malaise and pains. The symptoms can occur within 2 to seven days then respiratory problems such as whooping cough can develop.
