H1N1 Flu Update Preparedness

 

Flu related activity is starting to decrease slightly.  Half of the states are still reporting widespread flu activity.  Thus far, about 15%, or 1 in 6 people in the U.S. have been affected by the H1N1 virus. More doses of the H1N1 vaccines are becoming available so many boards and local health agencies are starting to open up the vaccination program to the entire population, not just the high risk groups.  This is consistent with the initial vaccination plan established by the CDC.  Seasonal flu activity is still mild with sporadic cases of Influenza B appearing which is covered by the seasonal flu vaccine.  The future is still very unpredictable with the H1N1 and seasonal flu virus as the flu season runs through May. For detailed weekly information on flu activity, please visit CDC’s FluView at www.cdc.gov/flu/weekly/
