Weekly Influenza Surveillance
Flu activity is widespread in most of the country. High flu activity is likely to continue for several weeks. If you have not gotten your flu vaccine yet this season, you should get one now. And remember that flu antiviral drugs are a second line of defense to treat flu illness. People at high risk of serious flu illness should call a health care provider if they get flu symptoms.
What you need to know for the 2013-2014 Season
- Should I still get vaccinated since flu season has started?
- Should I still get vaccinated even if I have already gotten sick with the flu?
- Can I get vaccinated and still get the flu?
- Has CDC received reports of people who have gotten a flu vaccine and then tested positive for flu?
