Flu Season Gets Worse

The flu epidemic has been getting worse in the past week and a half. With the death toll going up, most of them are the elderly, 65 and older. So far there have 34 pediatric deaths. On average, the flu season take about 24,000 lives across the U.S. But if you want to protect yourself from being one of the victims of the out-break, doctors highly recommend getting your flu shot; it can cut the risk of death and the severity if you get the flu. In the past week, the number of state affected by the flu has gone from 24 to 30.

Please get your flu shot, because I don't want the death toll to go up because of you. It can help protect you and the people around you.http://globegazette.com/news/national/flu-season-bad-one-for-the-elderly-cdc-says/article_f5513157-f5df-52b8-afb7-3fc7a9249ac8.html
