Flu Season's Officially Started

The state Health Department says flu season's officially here. A Polk County youngster's the first case of the 2011-2012 flu season. IDPH Medical Director Dr. Patricia Quinlisk tells KCCI now is a very good time to get your vaccine, especially if you have risk factors including heart and lung diseases, diabetes, women who are pregnant, the very young and very old. It's strongly recommended to wash your hands frequently, and if you're sick, stay home!
