Illness and Flu Reports
The Central District Health Department wants to keep you from getting sick with the flu!
The flu season in Central Nebraska usually runs from the early fall through late winter. Last year saw more flu than previous years. We encourage you to get a flu shot in the fall to lessen your risk of severe illness from the flu. When flu shots become available, we will post that information here. Please check back soon.
