#Flu season is over but #CDC was alerted last wk to 7 more kids who died from flu. Six were from this past season, bringing the total to date to 155. It will grow becoz these deaths are often reported on a delay, as the 7th death shows; it occurred in March 2025. The 2024-25 total is now a jaw-dropping, unbelievably tragic 297 children.
Most of these kids were not vaxed.

@HelenBranswell But, unfortunately, the scope of these deaths is not enough to outweigh the antivax rhetoric.
