Community Health for the Holidays

Written By Cuyler Dinegan
 

New preventative options are available for the flu, RSV and COVID. As recently reported:

  • The flu season started early in several South American countries this year, indicating we could have an early onset of widespread flu here as well.

  • Last year a high number of infants and young children were hospitalized with RSV, pushing many hospitals to capacity while also managing COVID-19 and flu patients.

  • COVID hospitalizations are still low, but the highest since April; levels in wastewater vary by region, with continued increases in the western and central Minnesota.

We encourage neighbors to stay updated on their vaccines, so we can all have safe and happy holidays!
