Monitor influenza activity in your zip code

Now that we have been able to vaccinate a vast majority of our patients against influenza, utilizing both FluMist and Fluzone, we are cautiously monitoring influenza activity in Florida. There is a neat website that allows you to check reported cases in your zip code. It is http://www.FluSTAR.com. As you can see, Brevard County is getting slammed now, and the trend is advancing on Orange Cty.

For more information on what flu symtoms may be like, please check http://www.fluFACTS.com . If you think you might have influenza, it is important that you have a flu test within the first 48 horus of fever, in order to utilize our anti-flu antibiotic treatment.
