Statistics show that flu activity is high in nearly half the country — 22 states and Puerto Rico, and experts are urging people to take preventive action by getting vaccinated, regardless if they are healthy or not.
The elderly are generally those affected the most. Flu-related hospitalizations among people 65 and older have reached 38.3 per 100,000 people, the highest rate of any age group, the CDC says. Getting vaccinated is the best way to reduce the chances that you will get seasonal flu and spread it to others.
