Flu season emerging early
The state is experiencing an early start to the flu season.
Appleton public health officer Kurt Eggebrecht says they haven't seen so many cases at the start of December, since the 2003-04 season. The CDC says that was the worst flu season in about 35 years.
The state is already reporting four flu-related deaths, and more than 100 confirmed cases.
Eggebrecht says there's still time for people to get a flu shot. He says it typically takes two weeks for the vaccine to start working.
Eggebrecht says people should also take the usual precautions to prevent the spread of the flu.
