0:33Now PlayingPresident Joe Biden’s medical adviser Anthony Fauci warned that the US should be prepared for “pretty bad flu season” coupled with continued Covid-19 cases this winter when he’ll be stepping down from his post as the nation’s top infectious disease official.
The Southern Hemisphere, which annually sees new strains of flu appear before the North, has already experienced a more severe season than usual, Fauci said Wednesday in an interview, and Americans should get flu shots when they become available.
An early uptick in influenza cases has alarmed Australian public health officials, where the flu season runs from April to September. They expect the season could be similar that of 2019, which saw record-setting levels of infections. That set off warning signals for the US about a potentially severe seasonal influenza this fall and winter, Fauci said.
