Health Officials Predict Flu Season Will Be The Worst In Years

As COVID-19 numbers continue to fall, health experts say the United States is gearing up for one of its worst flu seasons in years.

  • Dr. Allison Arwady, the public health commissioner for the city of Chicago, says the severity of the northern hemisphere's flu season often mirrors that of the southern hemisphere's -- and it has suffered through a particularly nasty one. Making matters worse is the U.S. has seen mild flu seasons in recent years, meaning immunity levels are low, Arwady says.
  • Arwady is urging people to get flu shots as soon as possible to help stop the virus from spreading.
