The influenza virus doesn't always cause recurrent infections. There are many different strains of the flu and there are two types, which are Type A ad Type B. The flu is a virus that has to run its course.

What type of organisms cause the diseases Influenza and SARS?

Influenza and SARS are both caused by viruses, although different ones. Both of these infectious diseases cause severe upper respiratory infections. Influenza in humans, aka the seasonal flu, is caused by three types of viruses: influenza Types A, B, and C. Swine flu is an influenza type A, for example. Within each type there are mutations and countless numbers of strains and subtypes. The influenza viruses are RNA viruses that come from the family Orthomyxoviridae. The SARS (Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome) virus causes the same symptom complex as "atypical pneumonia". It is an RNA virus that has been found in humans and birds. The name of the SARS virus is SARS coronovirus (SARS-CoV). It is one of many coronaviruses (some of which also cause a large percentage of common cold infections).
