It is unprecedented in recent flu seasons and mirrors national trends — the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention say flu activity has been “usually low” this season. Cases in Pennsylvania are down so much the health department won’t release a county-by-county breakdown of cases because to do so risks identifying flu patients.
Statewide there have been 3,351 lab-confirmed flu cases and 18 flu-associated deaths as of April 10, according to the weekly flu activity report released Tuesday by the health department. When a positive lab test is reported to the state, it’s logged as a confirmed flu case. The flu’s been detected in all 67 counties, resulting in 43 flu-related hospitalizations this flu season.
