This flu season is shaping up to be a bad one and right now in Iowa it is 'widespread' which is not just a description, but also the highest level on the CDC's activity scale.
That is also the same level across the country. So far this season, around 2,900 have died of complications from the flu. Of those, around 30 have been children.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says that 6.4 million people have had the flu this season.
So are you worried? Did you get a flu shot (I didn't)?
