Health Officials Urge Granite Staters to Gear Up for This Year’s Flu Season

Health officials throughout the New Hampshire area are advising Granite Staters to take precautions during this year’s flu season.

Authorities say they’re tracking a predictable rise in respiratory illnesses as the days grow short.

Testing reportedly is available for COVID-19, influenza and RSV.

However, officials warn, other respiratory viruses the state doesn’t test for are also in circulation, including some that can threaten children’s health.
