Flu Season Hits Record High in UK
Update: 2025-12-11
Description
The National Health Service in England is bracing for a potential crisis as flu cases surge by 55% in a week, with up to 8,000 patients expected in hospitals by the weekend. This early and aggressive flu season, linked to a genetic shift in the H3N2 virus, is particularly concerning due to low natural immunity and high infection rates among children. The NHS urges vulnerable groups to get vaccinated, as the current jab remains effective against severe illness.
