PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has issued an urgent warning to Americans. Getting a flu shot this year is more critical than ever.
Health officials hope that will lessen the number of flu symptoms which can be confused with COVID-19.
They are also worried about the stress on the health care system.
