Flu Season Deepens

CDC

Not the news anybody was hoping for: this could be a bad one. 

The federal Centers for Disease Control made the announcement recently. 

Part of the issue is a potential mismatch between this year's flu strains and vaccines. 

The vaccines are prepared well in advance, and the flu making people sick is not always the flu targeted by the vaccines. 

A physician from Oregon Public Health joins us with stories and projections from this flu season.
