About 500 cases of the flu have already been reported in Butler County.
The Pennsylvania Health Department is classifying the flu as ‘widespread’ across the state and says the flu cases we’re seeing now are much higher than they were at this time last year. And those are only the reported cases. Historically, the number of people who have the flu is way higher because many fight the infection from home and don’t seek medical care.
The flu can be deadly.
Doctors are urging anyone who experiences an unusually high fever, body aches, extreme tiredness, headache and sore throat to get checked out by a medical professional.
