Flu emergency by Jonathan Landeros
At almost 20,000 cases of flu were reported in New York for this season that is 4 times more than last years cases.7.3% of lasts weeks deaths were caused by pneumonia and flu.Flu vaccines have been given as a solution, but have only given 62% of effect.H3N strain and other severe diseases have started earlier this year and have given pain to many, but analysts have said the worst part has passed already.The only dates that have shown no sign of too many cases were California, Hawaii, and Mississippi.
Opinion: This is actually very serious. I got very sick for almost two weeks but I'm not sure what it was.
