The number of influenza cases being reported this season continues to outpace the average identified at the same time the past five years, the County Health and Human Services Agency announced today.
San Diego Pride and TransFamily Support Services, with Champions of Health in partnership with the County of San Diego County, have teamed up to host a vaccination clinic to administer COVID-19 first shots, second shots, and booster shots of Moderna and Pfizer to those who are eligible. Flu vaccines will also be available.
Five more San Diegans died from complications from influenza, bringing the total to nine this season, the San Diego County Health and Human Services Agency (HHSA) reported on Wednesday.
Although the two illnesses carry similar symptoms and the way people catch colds and the flu is roughly the same, the severity, treatment and in the case of the flu — prevention — can differ.
As of Dec. 28, 357 flu cases have been reported this flu season, which is 50 percent more than the number of cases reported this time last season, reported KPBS.
