Note: I urged people recently in several forums to get a flu shot. I should have qualified a little. I think you should get a flu shot THIS SEASON, but I don’t think you need to get it TODAY. Sure, if you want to get it done now so you don’t forget, fine. But I think the flu isn’t going to really ramp up for a few more weeks; levels are still pretty low, as you can see in charts way below.
This article (2024-10-03) talks about the changes the province made to reporting. It’s a week late, and says the same things I did last week, but I include it as proof that I’m not the only one whining about their changes.
