U.S. Influenza Season Arrives: Call for Everyone to Get (Another) Fresh JabSimon Kent 28 Dec 2021
The U.S. influenza season has arrived with hospitalizations rising and two child deaths reported, sparking the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to call for a mass vaccine campaign against the traditional winter malady.
“This is setting itself up to be more of a normal flu season,” said Lynnette Brammer, who tracks flu-like illnesses for the CDC.
