Influenza or “the flu” is one of the most common seasonal illnesses in the United States. In fact, according to the CDC, flu impacts anywhere between 3% and 11% of the U.S population each season in diagnosed cases. Untreated and untested cases could likely inflate projected numbers.
Influenza season begins in early October and goes through winter, sometimes prolonging into the early spring.
