Brazos County Health Department Flu Update

There are 90% fewer flu cases in Brazos County this year compared to last.

The Brazos County Health Department reports 112 flu cases this year compared to 1,340 at this time last year.

According to Dr. Seth Sullivan, Brazos County Alternate Health Authority, it’s nearly impossible to predict when flu season is going to hit.

“We know that we are still within the flu season, there is still the opportunity to get flu. We still recommend those who have not yet been vaccinated to be vaccinated,” he said.

Dr. Sullivan said it’s not a matter of if, but when the flu season hits.
