I can’t find how many people have died from it here on the web. Just California had 36 people die last week, but there aren’t any good sites to see where the us is currently.

I used to get a free flu jab every year but I stopped about 5 years ago because there was some controversy about what was in it and the nurse would never say so I stopped.
I haven't had the flu since but then I don't mix with big crowds in the winter and I carry a bottle of hand sanitizer gel and use it when i'm out and about.

Flu shot didn’t stop this new flu. I’ve been down 5 days with a serious fever. It’s the sickest I’ve ever been. Went to the hospital twice. Both times sent home and told to stack Tylenol and ibuprofen to keep it down. Given cough syrup with codine and told to try and stay hydrated. Anyone who gets this bug. Be prepared to be down for weeks.
Sorry to hear you’ve had it so bad. I just heard on the news that the dc area was getting hit hard by it about a week ago. Loads of Gatorade, and hope you’re over it soon.
We seem to have dodged the bullet over here. There was a few weeks over Dec/Jan that were rough, but looking at the flu map this week it seems to have peaked and new cases are waning. Scotland has had it bad though. A lot of people have heeded advice and got vaccinated which I think may have helped. I had mine last September.
