Flu season starts strong

Tom Schlueter of the Kane County Health Department understands his advice for people during flu season is simple and trite.



But that doesn’t stop him from encouraging people to get a flu shot and follow the three C’s: cover your cough, clean your hands and contain the disease by staying home when you’re sick.



“It can be a challenge, but if we all stayed home when we were sick and didn’t spread the disease, fewer people would be out from work,” Schlueter said.
