FLU SEASON CONTINUES

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says this year’s flu season is getting worse and the virus has killed 30 kids so far. Tamiflu, a medicine aimed at fighting the virus, is getting hard to come by with prescriptions have been at an all-time high and pharmacies are having trouble keeping up with the high demand. The demand has been so high that larger retailers are reaching out to smaller pharmacies to see if they have the drug in stock. The CDC says it may be some time before the number of flu cases begin to decline.
