Existing Flu Cases Are Of Mild Nature

• Hospitals are filling up with influenza patients again but the cases are milder and there do not seem to be as many deaths as a result. Areas of the city include North Riverdale, Edgemont, and near Dover street. • Schools won’t be closed unless it is determined that keeping schools open is hazardous to children’s health. Health officials believe that children are safe in school because their health is closely monitored. No deaths from influenza since schools re-opened have been traced to exposure from schools.Newspaper article1
