There is a lot of flu activity out there now.

Especially in the southern US. Some jurisdictions like Louisiana and Oregon are at very high flu activity levels.

We are on track for peak flu season in the coming weeks. Gonna be a lot of people getting flu around New Year's.

Iowa and Wisconsin had their first human H5N1 bird flu cases in two poultry workers.

The flu vaccine is still a decent match so far this season. More so for H1N1 than H3N2. There is slightly more H3N2 circulating right now than H1N1.

Never too late to get vaccinated. The seasonal flu vaccine won't protect against H5N1, but it could help reduce the risk of reassortment. And will reduce your risk of severe seasonal flu.
