CDC: Flu Season Starting Out Slowly:"This year's flu season appears to be starting slowly, according to the director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, despite a shortage of flu vaccines in the United States.
Dr. Julie Gerberding told reporters at the American Public Health Association's annual meeting on Sunday that 28 states are reporting cases, including Texas and two New York nursing homes. Not one is reporting widespread flu activity. The remainder of states and the District of Columbia, however, have not recorded a single flu case."

It's still too early to tell, but maybe we'll get lucky and have a mild season overall, vaccine or no vaccine.
