Flu kills young adult woman in Melbourne
http://www.floridatoday.com/article/...oman-Melbourne A Brevard County woman has died from the flu and two other local flu victims are on life support, the county Health Department said Monday. Hospitals are seeing a surge in cases, and health officials encourage people to get a flu shot to protect themselves and to reduce the spread of the disease. The woman who died Sunday at Holmes Regional Medical Center in Melbourne was in her mid- to late-30s, said Heidar Heshmati, director of the Health Department. He did not provide additional information about the patient. 2nd person to die in my area http://www.wftv.com/news/news/local/...ve-baby/nctzz/ Friends of Bryan told Channel 9's Ryan Hughes that she appeared to have caught a cold during her pregnancy and then developed pneumonia following the delivery of her child. "H1N1 has complications for particular groups. Young adults and especially pregnant women are at risk for complications," said Dr. Tim Hendrix with Centra Care. Bryan, who was in her 20s.

How bad is it?
Pretty bad. So far, California has recorded 95 flu-related deaths in people under age 65. Health officials say it’s likely another 51 deaths were also due to flu, but they’re still checking out those cases. If they’re confirmed, the total would be 146. How does that compare to years past? Worse than last year, when only nine deaths had been confirmed by this point. That entire season ended with a total of 106 deaths. What makes this year so different? The season ramped up a little early, health officials say. At Cedars, for example, doctors have seen a steady increase in patients since mid December. Another reason is that one of the primary strains out there is “swine flu,” also known as H1N1. Didn’t that strain cause a pandemic? Yes, in 2009 and 2010 it contributed to the deaths of thousands of people around the world. The strain affects younger people more often than many flu strains. Are younger people most at risk? In general, the very young, seniors and people with immune systems that have already been weakened by other illnesses or other medical conditions are most at risk of a severe flu. So are we all doomed to come down with it? No, especially if you get a flu shot. This year’s vaccine has proven to be a good match for this year’s bug. The overwhelming majority of people who have died so far as a result of the flu had not been vaccinated. Can’t the vaccine itself make you sick? Nope. Doctors say the shot does not contain any live virus. The nasal spray does contain a version of the live virus and can cause some cold-like symptoms, but it will not give you the flu. The Centers for Disease and Control and Prevention recommends that all people 6 months and older get vaccinated. Although there is not a 100% guarantee that you won’t get sick, officials say, it should keep the symptoms from becoming severe. Is it too late to get a flu shot or nasal spray vaccination? There is still time, but you had better get cracking; it takes about 10 days for the body to build up resistance to the virus, officials say. Call your doctor, visit a health clinic or even a drugstore. Info from Link. http://www.latimes.com/local/lanow/l...#ixzz2rc7DCv9L
