flu

Without underlying conditions.

The short answer is that you should know what's developing, but right now there's something else you should be more concerned about.

State health authorities say reported cases of the flu in North Dakota are up considerably from this time a year ago.

With six cases reported, for all practical purposes, we can now say this year's flu season is officially underway here in the Peace Garden State.

This year's flu season is one of the worst we've seen and Sanford Health wants to help limit it spreading further.

The virus is considered widespread in 36 states including North Dakota.

The N.D. Health Department has raised the level of flu activity to widespread.

According to the CDC, as of Thursday, December 14th, the flu virus is registered in the regional category for the state.

As of this week, there are more cases of the flu that have been reported than last year.

Maybe you haven't gotten the flu this season and nobody you know has gotten it. Expect that to change soon.
