Severe respiratory illness hits hundreds of U S kids
Public health officials report a cluster of severe respiratory illness among hundreds of children across about a dozen states. The suspected cause is enterovirus 68, an uncommon strain related to the common cold virus, with about 500 treated at Children's Mercy in Kansas City and some needing intensive care. Authorities in Illinois and Colorado say their states are among those with suspected or confirmed cases.
