sorry to hear your son was sick and hope he is better now. Everyone in our family also had the very bad sore throat and fever. My daughters ped said it was some sort of sinus infection. Her strep test came back negative but showed high levels of this other bacteria. Why did your doctor think your son it was the bird flu? I know they are worried its going to come to this country in the spring but i didnt’ think there were any cases here yet. scarry!!!! glad your son is better.terry
