Schools In 12 States Close In Battle Against The Flu
(Undated) — The flu fight is a classroom-by-classroom battle. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says there are 39 states with especially high flu activity. With so many teachers and students becoming ill, schools in at least 12 states have cancelled classes for a few days. While the schools are closed, crews are moving in cleaning and disinfecting classrooms. Doctor Daniel Jernigan of the CDC says children are not the only ones hit hard by the flu. Persons over 65 are also getting sick with a strain known as the H-3-N-2.
