Widespread flu activity has hit 35 states, according to the CDC, and it appears to be targeting young people who haven't been vaccinated.
Don't worry -- this isn't just a "millennials" problem. "Young," as defined by the report, includes everyone between the ages of 18 and 65: the folks who aren't typically hit as hard as children and seniors. But this season, H1N1 -- better known as "swine flu" -- is back on the scene, upping the risk for otherwise healthy people in that middle range.
Last year, 90 percent of the children who died from the flu hadn’t received their vaccinations.
In Northern California, 16 flu-related deaths have already been reported in people under 65, the youngest being a 23-year-old man with no underlying health problems. It's not too late to get vaccinated, but the shot does take two weeks to become effective, so officials suggest you get on that.
