As of December 1, 2018, five U.S. children have now died from flu, including one child from Mississippi. Children are more vulnerable to flu than most adults, and flu protection, including vaccination against the flu, is essential. Almost all children who die from flu are unvaccinated.
Nationwide, flu activity is increasing in the South and in states neighboring Mississippi. Getting your flu vaccination now is important as we near peak flu season. Remember, it can take up to two weeks to for a flu vaccination to reach its full effectiveness.
