The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reports a sharp rise in flu cases across the U.S. this holiday season, with at least 7.5 million infections, 81,000 hospitalizations, and 3,100 deaths as of Dec. 20. Pediatric deaths total eight. Thirty-two jurisdictions now show “high” or “very high” flu activity, up from 17 last week, including New York, Massachusetts, and Minnesota. New York State recorded 71,000 cases in one week—the highest ever tracked since 2004—with over 3,600 hospitalizations. Boston saw a 114% rise in cases, particularly among children, while Minnesota schools moved to online learning amid 113 hospitalizations. Scientists warn that the rapidly spreading H3N2 influenza A variant is harder for immune systems to detect, making the season more severe, especially for seniors. Flu vaccinations remain critical: approximately 130 million doses have been administered, with experts noting that vaccines still protect against severe illness and hospitalization. Public health officials urge high-risk groups to get vaccinated, maintain hygiene, and monitor symptoms closely as the flu surge continues
