The Flu Is Strong This Year

The Center for Disease Control and Prevention states that the flue is plaguing the United States at an all time high this year. According to gizmodo.com, “the flu could cause more illness than it has in nearly a decade, when two waves of a pandemic strain -- the terrible swine flu of 2009 -- hit the US throughout the summer and winter.” They ask that people be wary and wash their hands to stay safe from the virus.
