Just got my second flu jab for the season, so now I'm doubly dosed up! 
The pediatric death toll for the 2024-25 #flu season is now 241 (up 6 in today's FluView report). Stunning number & so tragic.
CDC says 90% of kids for whom vaccination status is known hadn't been fully vaxed against flu, compared to 82% of the peds deaths in 2023-24.

The annual totals graph.
2025's total lab-confirmed virus detections (="notifications") are rising as we get into the foothills of the start of the annual #flu epidemic.

Racing to Save #California’s #ElephantSeals From #BirdFlu
In 2023, bird #flu arrived on the rocky shores of the Valdés Peninsula in Argentina, ripping through the local colony of southern elephant seals. More than 17,000 seal pups died. It could take decades for the population to recover.
Now, a team of #ecologists, #epidemiologists and #veterinarians is scrambling to keep the same thing from happening to northern elephant seals.

A new strain of #COVID #nb181 has arrived in #NYC. I've always suspected that for the public, discussions of #COVID19 variants/strains were beside the point.
It gets headlines, and maybe some clicks and shares. But we regularly have new waves of hospitalizations and deaths without major new variants.
We also see headlines like " #flu cases are on the rise, here's how to protect your loved ones." I wonder which ones are more effective at getting people to #WearAMask
