Someone asked how common SARS is in children and what advice we should be giving in the event a breastfeeding mother gets SARS.  I have no answer to the advice question.   But for our information, according to the CDC at  http://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/preview/mmwrhtml/mm5213a1.htm

as of April 2, they have received 100 reports of suspected SARS cases from 28 states; 81 (81%) cases occurred among adults.  Nine (9) cases occurred in children between the ages of 0 to 4 years.  Five between 5 and 17.  No deaths reported.   David
