Mississippi State Department of Health - This Year’s Flu Season is Off to the Fastest Start in Years

This year’s flu season is off to the fastest start in years. Not since the 2009 H1N1 flu pandemic has Mississippi reached a high level of flu activity so early in the year, and it’s showing no sign of leveling off. Help stop the spread of flu by covering your coughs and staying home if you’re sick. A seasonal flu vaccination is your most important defense. It can reduce your chance of illness, hospitalization or death, especially if you’re older or in poor health. Learn more at HealthyMS.com/flu.
