It has been a record flu season so far, and people are doing whatever they can to avoid coming down with the ailment. But what can you do if you already have it?

Enter Jeni’s Splendid Ice Creams. The Ohio-based company’s Influenza Sorbet won’t cure the flu, but it will definitely make you feel better, said the company’s founder and president.

The Influenza Sorbet contains honey, ginger, orange juice and lemon juice. And if that weren’t enough, it also has Maker’s Mark bourbon and cayenne pepper.

Flu Status Update from the Virginia Dept. of Health

January 22nd, 2013 → 5:41 am @

The Virginia Department of Health (VDH) has been reporting widespread influenza activity since mid-December, with an abrupt and early start to this year’s flu season. We have received and responded to reports of outbreaks in all regions of the state, including reports from schools, assisted living facilities and nursing homes. While the surge in activity began in southwest Virginia, it has since spread to the remaining areas of the state. Influenza A/H3N2 is the predominant virus that is being laboratory confirmed.
While it’s too early to say what the rest of the season will bring, the early and active start to the season emphasizes the importance of prevention and prompt anti-viral treatment. Once the initial surge in illness activity passes, the influenza virus will continue to circulate in our communities for several weeks.  Read the rest of the post.

Vaccine Effectiveness ~ How Well Does the Flu Vaccine Work?

September 22nd, 2012 → 2:00 pm @

How effective is the flu vaccine?

How well the flu vaccine works (or its ability to prevent influenza illness) can range widely from season to season and also can vary depending on who is being vaccinated. At least two factors play an important role in determining the likelihood that influenza vaccine will protect a person from influenza illness: 1) characteristics of the person being vaccinated (such as their age and health), and 2) the similarity or “match” between the influenza viruses in the vaccine and those spreading in the community.

Influenza Vaccine Safety

September 22nd, 2012 → 1:00 pm @

Over the last 50 years, seasonal flu vaccines have had very good safety track records. Over the years, hundreds of millions of Americans have received seasonal flu vaccines. The most common side effects following flu vaccinations are mild. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) closely monitor for any signs that flu vaccines are causing unexpected adverse events and are working with state and local health officials to investigate any unusual events.
