The latest weekly flu report shows that flu continues to circulate widely in our communities, which is in keeping with how flu typically spreads at this time of year in this part of the country. We can expect to see elevated levels of flu activity well into February, March and even later. That’s why we continue to encourage everyone six months or older in the Commonwealth to get a flu vaccine. Please contact your health care provider, your local board of health, or your local pharmacy to get a flu shot today.

Had flu shot. Got the flu anyway. Ironic. Just confirmed on friday. Never been sicker in my life!
Me too! Confirmed H1N1 swine flu last wednesday. This was included in the flu shot I got back in September/October. I know, I know, I know, there's no guarantee. I'm just sayin'…
Went home from hosp. 7pm wednesday, back @ hospital that morning 4am w/ fever 102.7, admitted for a few days, home again Saturday evening, fever is finally gone, but the respiratory effects are terrible…severe cough, asthma-like wheezing. It's a bad flu. Don't get it.
Bummer! Feel better soon!!
